In a subgroup meta-analysis one typically does not report R^2.

However, you can run a meta-regression using metareg() which will call 
internally rma.uni() or rma.glmm() from metafor.

E.g.,

m = metaprop(nlameanimal, ssizeanimal, author, data=prevalence_2020_noout,
              method="inverse", sm="PLOGIT", method.tau="DL", 
method.ci="NAsm",
              byvar=lcmbi, tau.common=TRUE,prediction = TRUE)

metareg(m)

Best wishes, Guido
