FD package_dbFD error
I think you would more likely find the help you seek on the r-sig-ecology list rather than here. Also, do note per the posting guide linked below: "For questions about functions in standard packages distributed with R (see the FAQ Add-on packages in R <https://cran.r-project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Add-on-packages-in-R>), ask questions on R-help. If the question relates to a *contributed package* , e.g., one downloaded from CRAN, try contacting the package maintainer first [who you can find via ?maintainer]. You can also use find("functionname") and packageDescription("packagename") to find this information. *Only* send such questions to R-help or R-devel if you get no reply or need further assistance. This applies to both requests for help and to bug reports."

Hi everyone,
I am trying to conduct dbFD from the FD package, but it keeps giving me
the same error:
ex1 <- dbFD(sites, traits)
Error in dbFD(sites, traits) :
Different number of species in 'x' and 'a'.
Ab, bb, Ci.... are species names.
I have tried rewriting the species names so many times and ways, but
nothing seems to work. I also checked for blank space but can't seem to
find one. Does anyone have and idea what am I doing wrong?
My data consists of two data frames:
