search_species

Search for a species/taxon by Norwegian popular name or scientific name.

Signature: search_species(term: string, required; taxon_group_id: integer, optional, default None; status: string, optional, default None; limit: integer, items, optional, default 15; offset: integer, items, optional, default 0)

Direct GET

For navigating agents: open the HTML page with parameters in the URL. The result is fetched and displayed without screenshots or form filling.

Open this validated HTML GET URL

https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/kilder/artskart/search_species/?term={term}&taxon_group_id={taxon_group_id}&status={status}&limit=15&offset=0

Replace {term}, {taxon_group_id}, {status}, {limit} with values. Remove unused optional parameters from the URL.

For software and dashboards: Read the operation descriptor. The JSON GET template is https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/artskart/search_species?term={term}&taxon_group_id={taxon_group_id}&status={status}&limit=15&offset=0. Open this exact request as JSON.

Parameter	Requirement	JSON type	Description
`term`	required	string	Search text, e.g. "elg" or "Alces alces".
`taxon_group_id`	optional	union	Optional taxon group id to narrow the search (ids from list_reference_codes("taxongroup")).
`status`	optional	union	Optional redlist/alien-species status code to filter by, e.g. "cr", "en", "hi" (codes from list_reference_codes("status")).
`limit`	optional	integer	Max results, default 15. Unit: items.
`offset`	optional	integer	Number of list items to skip; default 0.

Generated JavaScript, Python and response structure

Use JSON when the user requests code, machine-readable data, value extraction or further computation. Use the HTML GET page to identify the correct source and verify parameters.

Example for generated JavaScript and Python

https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/artskart/search_species?term={term}&taxon_group_id={taxon_group_id}&status={status}&limit=15&offset=0

Replace URL placeholders and remove unused optional parameters.

JavaScript in a dashboard

const url = "https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/artskart/search_species?term={term}&taxon_group_id={taxon_group_id}&status={status}&limit=15&offset=0";
const response = await fetch(url);
if (!response.ok) {
  const failure = await response.json();
  throw new Error(`${failure.error.code}: ${failure.error.message} ${failure.suggestion}`);
}
const result = await response.json();
const data = result.data;

Python without additional packages

import json
from urllib.request import urlopen

url = "https://allemannsdata.com/wiki/api/v1/kilder/artskart/search_species?term={term}&taxon_group_id={taxon_group_id}&status={status}&limit=15&offset=0"
with urlopen(url) as response:
    result = json.load(response)
data = result["data"]

Response structure

  "source": "artskart",
  "operation": "search_species",
  "parameters": {},

Form for manual use

The form is a fallback for people and browser agents that cannot open the GET URL directly.

How an AI agent should use this page

Ground rule: Navigate with HTML GET links to keep explanations and relationships. Use the page's JSON alternative only when concrete values must be extracted, compared or computed.

How to use the search_species lookup

Replace the placeholders in the HTML GET template; remove optional parameters you do not need.
Check types, units, limits and ID formats in the parameter table.
Follow linked results to canonical pages before combining sources.

Misreading to avoid: An empty list means "no results for this lookup". An error message or unavailable source does not mean the data does not exist.

Source-specific next step

Go to the source page for other operations. Use the JSON template only after the HTML result shows that the parameters and source are correct.
