get_occurrences_ala(species, ala_args = NULL)

get_occurrences_gbif(species, gbif_args = NULL)

`species`	The full scientific species name, quoted.
`ala_args`	Optionally, a list of arguments passed to `occurrences` (ALA4R package).
`gbif_args`	Optionally, a list of arguments passed to `occ_search` (rgbif package).

Note that when passing additional arguments to occ_search, the following arguments are already set and can not be overriden : hasGeospatialIssue (FALSE), limit (50000), fields (species, lat and long), and of course scientificName. When passing additional arguments to occurrences, only download_reason (7) is already set.
