Description

BIEN_list_all produces a list of all species in the BIEN database.

Usage

BIEN_list_all(...)

Arguments

Value

Dataframe containing a list of all species in the BIEN database.

See Also

Other list functions: BIEN_list_country(), BIEN_list_county(), BIEN_list_sf(), BIEN_list_state()

Examples

## Not run: 
species_list<-BIEN_list_all()
## End(Not run)

Description

BIEN_list_country downloads a list of all species within a country or countries from the BIEN database.

Usage

BIEN_list_country(
  country = NULL,
  country.code = NULL,
  cultivated = FALSE,
  new.world = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

Value

Dataframe containing species list(s) for the specified country or countries.

Note

Political division (or political division code) spelling needs to be exact and case-sensitive, see BIEN_metadata_list_political_names for a list of political divisions and associated codes.

See Also

Other list functions: BIEN_list_all(), BIEN_list_county(), BIEN_list_sf(), BIEN_list_state()

Examples

## Not run: 
BIEN_list_country("Canada")
country_vector<-c("Canada","United States")

Description

BIEN_list_county produces a list of all species with geovalidated occurrences falling within specified county or counties.

Usage

Arguments

Value

Dataframe containing species list(s) for the specified states/provinces.

Note

Political division (or political division code) spelling needs to be exact and case-sensitive, see BIEN_metadata_list_political_names for a list of political divisions and associated codes.

We recommend using country, state, and county rather than codes, since county names have not been fully standardized.

This function requires you supply either 1) a single state and country with one or more counties, or 2) vectors of equal length for each political level.
