3,363 georeferenced occurrence records with coordinates are published for Amphiprion perideraion through GBIF, from 36 countries or marine areas. This page maps those records and lists where they come from. Occurrence records reflect where people have looked as well as where the species lives, so well-surveyed coastlines are over-represented.

How to read this map
The map plots a sample of 3,000 of the 3,363 records, deduplicated to a half-degree grid, so dense areas do not merge into one blob. The sample covers 33 of the 36 countries or areas with records; the areas absent from the sample hold 7 records in total (Canada, Sri Lanka, Singapore).
36 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.
