How to read this map
The map plots a sample of 3,000 of the 33,131 records, deduplicated to a half-degree grid, so dense areas do not merge into one blob. The sample covers 36 of the 42 countries or areas with records; the areas absent from the sample hold 16 records in total (Brazil, Trinidad and Tobago, Cabo Verde, Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, Congo, Saint Kitts and Nevis).
27 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.
