I noticed something similar about two weeks ago, I assumed it had to do with the difference between local and regional establishment means, but I could very well be wrong.
How do these searches work… ie does “native” produce results native to the country or region chosen by the iNat member as their usual search results?
FYI, I had a similar problem last week (mac, firefox): trying to do a search on observations that I did not make, and ¬_user_id=caththalictroides did not exclude my observations. (not looking to divert the conversation to my problem, just adding another data point)
To be clear, I actually do not want native species only. I primarily want species that have been marked neither as native nor introduced. If I understand it correctly, &native or &native=true will only return species marked as native. As such, this isn’t the same as &introduced=false. If I’m mistaken, I hope someone corrects me.
The main reason I tried to use it was to find species that hadn’t been marked as introduced for certain regions.
