How to read this map
The map plots a sample of 2,730 of the 2,730 records, deduplicated to a half-degree grid, so dense areas do not merge into one blob. The sample covers 4 of the 4 countries or areas with records; the areas absent from the sample hold 0 records in total.
Records show where the species has been observed and reported, not a modelled range.
