Hi all, Dimiano (in CC) has identified a potential problem with the species API. see https://github.com/ropensci/rgbif/issues/299 In particular the /species/search route. The gist is that we think there's duplicates returned when paging through that route for a given search. This comment

[API-users] Getting all results for a given search filter
