Description: Accesses the California Academy of Sciences Eschmeyer's
        Catalog of Fishes in R using web requests. The Catalog of
        fishes is the leading authority in fish taxonomy. Functions in
        the package allow users to search for fish taxa and valid
        names, retrieve taxonomic references, retrieve monthly
        taxonomic changes, obtain natural history collection
        information, and see the number of species by taxonomic group.
        For more information on the Catalog: Fricke, R., Eschmeyer, W.
