  latest = NULL,
  possibly_extinct = NULL,
  possibly_extinct_in_the_wild = NULL,
  scope_code = NULL,
  page = 1
)

Arguments

code

Numeric or Character. One or more biogeographical realm codes (e.g. 0 or "0"). Use rl_biogeographical_realms() to list available realms.

year_published

Optional. Single or numeric vector of years to filter assessments by publication year.

latest

Optional. Logical. If TRUE, return only the latest assessment per species.

possibly_extinct

Optional. Logical. Filter for species flagged as possibly extinct.

possibly_extinct_in_the_wild

Details

This function has two modes:

  • If code = NULL, it returns a list of available biogeographical realms.

  • If code is provided, it retrieves assessments for the specified realm(s), optionally filtered by year, extinction status, scope, and page(s).

If page is not specified, the function will automatically paginate over all available pages for each parameter combination.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
# List all available biogeographical realms
rl_biogeographical_realms()

# Retrieve all assessments for realm code 0
rl_biogeographical_realms(code = 0)

# Get latest assessments from multiple pages with filters
rl_biogeographical_realms(
  code = 0,
  year_published = c(2020, 2021),
  page = c(1, 2)
)
} # }
