JSON response for specificEpithet is called "specific", not "species" #56

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The documentation of the nameparser api 
(http://tools.gbif.org/nameparser/api.do) indicates that the variable name for 
the specificEpithet part of the name is called "species".
The actual name for the variable is "specific".

It is probably better to use DwC terms for the variables (see other issue).
