There is no underscore method, because there's no real search for IUCN, that is, where you search for a string, and get back a bunch of results due to fuzzy matching. If that exists in the future we'll add an underscore method here.
IUCN ids only work with synonyms() and sci2comm()
methods.
A vector of taxonomic identifiers as an S3 class.
Comes with the following attributes:
match (character) - the reason for NA, either 'not found',
'found' or if ask = FALSE then 'NA due to ask=FALSE')
name (character) - the taxonomic name, which is needed in
synonyms() and sci2comm() methods since they
internally use rredlist functions which require the taxonomic name,
and not the taxonomic identifier
ri (character) - The URI where more information can be read on the taxon - includes the taxonomic identifier in the URL somewhere
multiple_matches and pattern_match do not apply here as in other get_*
methods since there is no IUCN Redlist search, so you either get a match or
you do not get a match.
