\title{Inter-community mean pairwise distance}
\usage{
comdist.par(comm, dis, abundance.weighted = FALSE, cores = 1, progress = TRUE)
}
\arguments{
\item{comm}{Community data matrix with samples as rows}

\item{dis}{Distance matrix (generally a phylogenetic distance matrix)}

\item{abundance.weighted}{Should mean nearest taxon distances for each species be weighted by species abundance? (default = FALSE)}

\item{cores}{How many cores should be used for parallel computing}

\item{progress}{Show a progress bar}
}
\value{
A distance matrix of MPD values
}
\description{
Parallel calculation of MPD (mean pairwise distance) separating taxa in two communities, a measure of phylogenetic beta diversity
