GBIF occurrence records for Haemulon parra, mapped and tabulated by country.
26,039 georeferenced occurrence records with coordinates are published for Haemulon parra through GBIF, from 35 countries or marine areas. This page maps those records and lists where they come from.

How to read this map
The map plots a sample of 3,000 of the 26,039 records, deduplicated to a half-degree grid, so dense areas do not merge into one blob. The sample covers 29 of the 35 countries or areas with records; the areas absent from the sample hold 40 records in total (Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of), Barbados, French Guiana, Ecuador, Saint Lucia, Nicaragua).
32 records plotting inland were omitted: for a marine species those are almost always the holding institution's coordinates rather than a collection site.
Records show where the species has been observed and reported, not a modelled range.
