I seems I cannot search treebase by class (I can for fishbase at least), so it would be nice to simply get a list of every genus in the class and pipe that through the treebase search as a work around. What do you think?  \r\n\r\nI can then pull some traits for fish down from fishbase, and would have a working example combining three packages. \r\n\r\ntreebase and fishbase can pull down publication info, so it wouldn't be too much further to wrap in mendeley, though not sure why it would be useful -- readership is probably a poor proxy for data quality, but it would be possible.
