eubon_children(id, providers = NULL, timeout = 0, ...)

Arguments

id

(character) identifier for the taxon. (LSID, DOI, URI, or any other identifier used by the checklist provider)

providers

(character) A list of provider id strings concatenated by comma characters. The default : "pesi,bgbm-cdm-server[col]" will be used if this parameter is not set.

timeout
