Thomas,

Function ordiplot3d() can only add one kind of scores (and I have no plans of 
changing this, but contributions are welcome). Adding species scores as text 
is possible but needs a bit work.

One of the items you received from the plotting was xyz.convert (see your error 
message above). This is a function that changes 3D coordinates onto your
plotting plane. You may proceed like this:

sp <- scores(ENVIESRDA, choices=1:3, display="species")
text(pl$xyz.convert(sp), rownames(sp)) 

HTH,
