Hi, While Bert is right that this would be a good question for r-sig-ecology, I think you might have made a very simple-to-fix mistake:
According to https://www.rdocumentation.org/packages/FD/versions/1.0-12/topics/dbFD if you don't name the arguments, traits should come BEFORE sites. If that doesn't help, take a look at the site and trait data frames used in the examples and see if you can figure out where you went wrong. If you can't, then try r-sig-ecology.
