Expected result not returning in Occurrences List endpoint #16

Closed jbryan6 closed 6 years ago

When executing the following request:

https://paleobiodb.org/data1.2/occs/list.json?base_name=dinosauria&interval=cenomanian

The following record does not return, despite apparently qualifying based on the parameters:

https://paleobiodb.org/classic/checkTaxonInfo?taxon_no=68418&is_real_user=1

Modifying the request to check other stages in the possible range (Turonian and Santonian) doesn't return the record either.

I believe this issue can be closed. The record was excluded because of the default value for the timerule parameter (major). The record appears correctly when the timerule parameter is set to overlap.
