@Patrick Leary: I don't particularly need xml. I have been playing around with the json most of today, but I'm not having much luck there either. I can load the json okay (I think) but it doesn't want to recognize any of the nested dictionaries and dictionaries.

@Roderic Page: Interesting that the tags in the xml you link to is different from what the API returned to me for another species....

@Roderic Page: Thanks for the suggestion. When I use the purl URI I lose the complaints about the dc:prefix, but now it doesn't pick up anything. I'll keep pounding away at it, but if you've got a bit of code working I'd really appreciate it if you would send it along. Thanks!

Hi I'm new to this community. I have a question about parsing the xml output from the API. I'm using python to pick out the bits I need, but it doesn't seem to like the dc: prefix. I've tried to define it using namespaces, but it is still not happy. Has anyone else run into this problem? Below is what I'm doing. Any advice is appreciated. import xml.etree.ElementTree as ET nsmap = {'dc':'http://dublincore.org/documents/dces'} tree = ET.parse('test.xml') identifier = tree.findtext('response/taxon/dataObject/dc:identifier', namespace=nsmap) description = tree.findtext('response/taxon/dataObject/dc:description', namespace=nsmap) print (identifier, description)

This particular species are defecated out of the body. The pock marks are probably from some other species of bot fly.

This should be labeled as Prorocentrum micans so it will show up on the P. micans page.

Is it me or is Mediterranean misspelled in the common name at the top of the page?
