Hi, Using Python anf the pygbif library, you can do something like this:
from pygbif import species, occurrences taxon_name = "Myrtales" # an order level taxon taxon_rank = "order" key = species.name_backbone(name=taxon_name, rank=taxon_rank)["usageKey"] n = occurrences.count(taxonKey=key, isGeoreferenced=True) print n, " record(s) for ", taxon_name This script allows to retrieve the number of records at a given taxonomic level; it can be modified to retrieve the records themselves (or selected parts of them). Hope this helps. Salud! 2016-09-01 10:19 GMT-03:00 Eduardo Dalcin <edalcin at jbrj.org>: > Hi Tim, Thanks for the prompt reply.
