Description: Dear responsible,

I found the following issues when downloading records of parrots:

The following species cant be downloaded by using the gibf function from R platform:

Calyptorhynchus funereus
Neophema elegans
Northiella haematogaster
Psephotus varius
Melopsittacus undulatus
Glossopsitta porphyrocephala
Trichoglossus haematodus

they give this kind of problem(open it in Mozilla)

gbif is a widely used function that usually works well with other species to download data from your portal.

Also, the downloaded records often come with a high level of errors literally ruining thousands of them.
A species that raises special problems is: Aprosmictus erythropterus

Hope you find this useful to maintain your portal which otherwise is priceless!

The former portal's web services are no longer supported, therefore this issue will be marked as won't fix.

The reporter hasn't left an email address to contact them with more information.
