This form allows you to download a file with data about taxonomic occurrences, genera or species, fossil collections, or specimens. Page through the six tabs to see all the options. Key fields are in bold. You can always use the basic form instead. To compute a diversity curve, you need to check off either "period," "epoch," "Cenozoic subepoch," or "10 m.y. bin" in the "Collection fields" part of the form.

... or include exclude abundances of these taxa only: Other occurrences will still be printed, but without their abundance values
Include abundances if the collection's taxonomic list omits some genera?	no, base abundances on complete collections yes, base abundances on all collections
Include occurrences that are classified or unclassified? This is useful if you want to find entries that might be typos	include both unclassified only classified only
