A plyr 解决方案（ tmp 是您的数据框架）：

A plyr solution (tmp is your data frame):

library("plyr")
ddply(tmp, .(id), function(x) x[c(1, nrow(x)), ])
#    id d gr  mm area
# 1  15 1  2 3.4    1
# 2  15 1  1 5.5    2
# 3  21 1  1 4.0    2
# 4  21 1  2 3.8    2
# 5  22 1  1 4.0    2
# 6  22 1  2 4.6    2
# 7  23 1  1 2.7    2
# 8  23 1  2 3.0    2
# 9  24 1  1 3.0    2
# 10 24 1  2 2.0    3

或 dplyr （见另外此处）：

library("dplyr")
tmp %>%
group_by(id) %>%
slice(c(1, n())) %>%
ungroup()
# # A tibble: 10 × 5
#       id     d    gr    mm  area
#    <int> <int> <int> <dbl> <int>
# 1     15     1     2   3.4     1
# 2     15     1     1   5.5     2
# 3     21     1     1   4.0     2
# 4     21     1     2   3.8     2
# 5     22     1     1   4.0     2
# 6     22     1     2   4.6     2
# 7     23     1     1   2.7     2
# 8     23     1     2   3.0     2
# 9     24     1     1   3.0     2
# 10    24     1     2   2.0     3
