I would recommend using the lme (linear mixed-effects) function from
the nlme package for this. Please ensure that you have R version
0.90.0 installed, then use
install.packages("nlme")
from within R to obtain and install the package.
If I understand your message correctly, your model specification would be
fm1 <- lme(abund ~ A * B, random = list(C = ~ 1, D = ~ 1), data = datos)
This will fit the restricted maximum likelihood (REML) estimates.
If you prefer to get maximum likelihood (ML) estimates, include the argument
method = "ML"
