itis_acceptname: Retrieve accepted TSN and name

Description

Retrieve accepted TSN and name

Usage

itis_acceptname(searchtsn, ...)

Value

data.frame with with row number equal to input vector length, and with three columns:

• submittedtsn (numeric) - The submitted TSN

• acceptedname (character) - The accepted name - if the submitted TSN is the accepted TSN, then this is NA_character_ because ITIS does not return a name along with the TSN if it's an accepted name. We could make an extra HTTP request to ITIS, but that means additional time.

• acceptedtsn (numeric) - The accepted TSN

• author (character) - taxonomic authority

Arguments

searchtsn

One or more TSN for a taxon (numeric/integer)

if (FALSE) {
# TSN accepted - good name
