This is a simple reimplementation of FUNGuild_v1.1.py. It queries the FUNGuild or NEMAGuild databases (http://www.stbates.org/guilds/app.php) and assigns trait information based on matching to a taxonomic classification. It does not include a copy of the FUNGuild or NEMAGuild databases, because they are continually updated as new information is submitted, but it does have methods to download them and store them as R objects to speed up repeated queries or to allow local queries without internet access.
