Hi Gabi,
Thanks for this. It is something that we have pondered a few times as a
possible API we could offer, but not something we?ve heard a *really* strong
call for.
One of the worries we have, is that if we offer a consistent API on ?other
peoples data? then we have to take responsibility

Hi Scott
The explanation is that occurrences come from a different backend system.
There are metrics for occurrence datasets:

Dear GBIF API users,
We are pleased to announce that we are preparing to move a new taxonomic
backbone into production.
This is the first revision of the backbone for quite some years, which will
bring the GBIF backbone up to date with latest data sources, such as the
Catalogue of Life 2016
to the backbone taxonomy
within weeks, as opposed to years. We anticipate the next deployment of the
backbone taxonomy to be in around 12 weeks from now.
Congratulations to all involved with this work.
All the best,

Download will be best.
However, there are limits and you will not be able to push 3000 in.
You could either split it into groups of e.g. 300, or use a higher taxon and

is how I would do it).
