get_maturity_fishbase(fish, mirror = "se")

Arguments

fish

Vector of fish species with genus and species information.

mirror

Character string defining the url mirror to use. Defaults to se. In case data extraction is slow use a different mirror. Try to avoid frequently used mirrors like uk or com.

Value

Dataframe with species, country, locality, linf and k.

Details

Before the actual extraction takes place fishbase IDs for every species are extracted using get_ids_fishbase. The IDs are needed to generate the urls later on.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # For some reason the examples break with appveyor. fish <- c("Gadus morhua", "Squalus acanthias") df <- get_maturity_fishbase(fish) head(df) }
