Try this:

2009-03-27 2009-04-30 2009-05-29 2009-06-26
2 5 8 9
or this:
> last.date <- ave(time(a), as.yearmon(time(a)), FUN = function(x) tail(x, 1))
> aggregate(a, last.date, tail, 1)
2009-03-27 2009-04-30 2009-05-29 2009-06-26
2 5 8 9
Note that the examples in ?aggregate.zoo include some that are very
similar examples are shown here.
Also see ?ave .
