dwctaxon 2.0.3
CRAN release: 2023-12-13
Bug fixes
- Don’t require that all values of a reference column be unique when matching values, instead only require that the matched values be unique. This means it is now possible to use (for example)
dct_fill_col()
to fillacceptedNameUsageID
based onscientificName
even ifscientificName
contains some duplicated values, as long as those don’t match any values in thematch_from
column (https://github.com/ropensci/dwctaxon/pull/97)
