    Pagination and prefix search on /species routes
    Species list routes /v2/species and /v2/{project}/species now accept parameters "page" and "pageSize" to drive pagination, and "prefix" to search among species.

    Automatic resizing of input images
    Plant images you submit for identification are now automatically resized to 1280px on the smaller side, before being processed by the AI.
