Tanglegrams (mirror tree or cophylogenetic tree)

Hi,

Does anyone know how to draw a mirror phylogenetic tree in R? There is a tree in Newick format and is loaded to R by read.newick() and ggtree() functions. I want to face this tree to itself and link some of its tips.

Any idea to generate a cophylogeny figure would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Do you mean something like this?enter image description here

Yes something like this, but not linking any tip to itself, for instance joining Nasalis on the left to Homo on the right. Can i have a look at the tree source code?
