Apalis thoracica
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Garden Route National Park, aggregated onto a 25 km grid. A cell is matched by its centre, which can sit up to 16 km outside the boundary, so this covers the surrounding country too.
Occurrence records measure where people looked and found something, which is not the same as where the animal is. This is a relative likelihood, not a probability.
Records exist for January, February, March, April, May, June, July, August, September, October, November and December, with the widest coverage in January, February, March, April, July, August, September, October, November and December. A quiet month can mean the animal was absent, or that nobody was looking.
A grid cell is a square of the map, not a sighting: 9 squares of 25 km carry records for Bar-throated Apalis in and around Garden Route National Park, and the 10,853 records behind them were collected by other people and published openly. Nothing here counts animals, and a place with more records is not always a place with more animals.
Addo Elephant, Kruger and Garden Route National Park are among twelve atlas places where the Bar-throated Apalis is recorded. Records of this bird gather most thickly in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Tanzania, though it is also recorded in Lesotho and Eswatini. The atlas holds about 112,000 records from five countries, and the map shows where these sightings concentrate.
Of the 80 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Garden Route National Park, the Bar-throated Apalis is the 10th most recorded.
