I am sure this should be brought to the INGV people, but maybe there is a simple workaround?

The obspy manual states:  
Select one or more SEED station codes. Multiple codes are comma-separated (e.g. “ANMO,PFO”).

In case of get\_events with INGV client this does not work:

TypeError: The parameter ‘stations’ is not supported by the service.

Thanks.

Hi blaz, `get_events` is for earthquake catalogs and does not support a `station` parameter.

Ah ok. It looks like you’re using `stations` instead of `station` as parameter.
