Probably this is a simple question,

Does anyone know how to hide the default axis x labels in boxplot() in R?

It should be simple, but I search on several sites and on boxplot help but could not find the answer.

    You mean like this?

     d <- data.frame(x = 2, y=1:5) 
 boxplot(d)
 boxplot(d, axes=FALSE) # add axes=FALSE to remove axes

    you can then add axes however you please:

    e.g.

     d <- data.frame(x = 2, y=1:5) 
 boxplot(d, axes=FALSE)
 axis(2, at=1:5, labels=c(rep("whatever I want",5)))

    EDIT as per your comment:

    remove default labels:

     boxplot(d, xaxt="n")
