One row per taxon, keyed worms:<id> or itis:<id> (birds key ITIS, because WoRMS bird taxonomy lags). Carries worms_id / itis_id / gbif_id, parent_taxon_key and the flattened classification, so a hierarchy rollup ("everything in Decapoda") resolves without a second source.

Usage

cc_read_taxon(..., version = "latest", collect = TRUE)

Arguments

...

Additional filter expressions passed to dplyr::filter()

version

Database version (default: "latest")

collect

If TRUE, collect results into memory. If FALSE, return lazy dbplyr table (default: TRUE)

Value

Tibble of taxa (if collect=TRUE) or lazy table

Details

Replaces the per-dataset species table, which the taxon consolidation removed — see cc_read_species().

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
taxa <- cc_read_taxon()
anchovy <- cc_read_taxon(scientific_name == "Engraulis mordax")
} # }
