 \usage{

 cutoff=TRUE, r.type="pearson", nperm=999, mult="holm", progressive=TRUE)

 \method{plot}{mantel.correlog}(x, alpha=0.05, ...)

 \arguments{
-  \item{D.eco}{ An ecological distance matrix, with class either \code{dist} or \code{matrix}. }
-  \item{D.geo}{ A geographic distance matrix, with class either \code{dist} or \code{matrix}. Provide either \code{D.geo} or \code{XY}. Default: \code{D.geo=NULL}. }
-  \item{XY}{ A file of Cartesian geographic coordinates of the points. Default: \code{XY=NULL}. }
-  \item{n.class}{ Number of classes. If \code{n.class=0}, the Sturge equation will be used unless break points are provided. }
-  \item{break.pts}{ Vector containing the break points of the distance distribution. Default: \code{break.pts=NULL}. }
-  \item{cutoff}{ For the second half of the distance classes, \code{cutoff = TRUE} limits the correlogram to the distance classes that include all points. If \code{cutoff = FALSE}, the correlogram includes all distance classes. }
-  \item{r.type}{ Type of correlation in calculation of the Mantel statistic. Default: \code{r.type="pearson"}.  Other choices are \code{r.type="spearman"} and \code{r.type="kendall"}, as in functions \code{\link{cor}} and \code{\link{mantel}}. }
-  \item{nperm}{ Number of permutations for the tests of significance. Default: \code{nperm=999}. For large data files, permutation tests are rather slow. } 
-  \item{mult}{ Correct P-values for multiple testing. The correction methods are \code{"holm"} (default), \code{"hochberg"}, \code{"sidak"}, and other methods available in the \code{\link{p.adjust}} function: \code{"bonferroni"} (best known, but not recommended because it is overly conservative), \code{"hommel"}, \code{"BH"}, \code{"BY"}, \code{"fdr"}, and \code{"none"}. }  
-  \item{progressive}{ Default: \code{progressive=TRUE} for progressive correction of multiple-testing, as described in Legendre and Legendre (1998, p. 721). Test of the first distance class: no correction; second distance class: correct for 2 simultaneous tests; distance class k: correct for k simultaneous tests. \code{progressive=FALSE}: correct all tests for \code{n.class} simultaneous tests. }

-\details{
-A correlogram is a graph in which spatial correlation values are plotted, on the
-ordinate, as a function of the geographic distance classes among the study sites along the abscissa. In a Mantel correlogram, a Mantel correlation (Mantel 1967) is computed between a multivariate (e.g. multi-species) distance matrix of the user's choice and a design matrix representing each of the geographic distance classes in turn. The Mantel statistic is tested through a permutational Mantel test performed by \code{vegan}'s \code{\link{mantel}} function.
