Get taxon table - A list of fish and non-fish species and their ITIS taxon code

Description

This function accesses the api endpoint for taxon records of fish and non-fish species. These records include the ITIS code, common name, scientific name, taxonomic rank, vert/invert classification, and HHFAU code (if applicable). Different taxonomic ranks allow selection of a taxon at different levels of specificity (e.g. 'Turtles/Testudines' vs. 'Eastern painted turtle').
