  1. Fails (404):

Query: https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/match?name=Aa&strict=false&verbose=true&kingdom=Plantae&genus=Aa Response: 404 - Undocumented Error: response status is 404

  1. Unexpected HIGHERRANK Response:

Query: https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/match?name=Aa%20lehmannii&strict=false&verbose=true&kingdom=Plantae&genus=Aa Response: json


{
  "usageKey": 2850872,
  "scientificName": "Aa Rchb.f.",
  "canonicalName": "Aa",
  "rank": "GENUS",
  "status": "ACCEPTED",
  "confidence": 99,
  "note": "Similarity: name=100; classification=6; rank=12; status=1; score=119; nextMatch=5",
  "matchType": "HIGHERRANK",

}

Successful Match without genus Parameter:

Query: https://api.gbif.org/v1/species/match?name=Aa%20lehmannii&strict=false&verbose=true&kingdom=Plantae Response:json

It was a code bug when name and genus had just 2 letter genera content. Will be deployed in a few days to prod

Thanks so much. I’ve got another bug to report I’ll get that one reported shortly. I work in python with a little C, but no java. Always been super impressed how well scaled this API is.
