```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the biodiversity data for Brazil from the lilambd API — I want to see what country-level biological diversity information they have on it?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need country-level biodiversity data and are willing to pay a small per-call fee via x402/USDC micropayment. Useful when other free biodiversity APIs lack coverage or when integrating with crypto-native payment workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unrecognized country identifier returns an error or empty result
- Network timeout if the service is slow to respond
- 402 Payment Required if USDC payment is not properly attached to the request
- Sparse or incomplete data for less-studied countries
- Malformed query parameters may return a 400 error
