Turdoides jardineii
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Mapungubwe 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 June, July, August, 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: 3 squares of 25 km carry records for Arrow-marked Babbler in and around Mapungubwe National Park, and the 887 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.
Kruger National Park, the Okavango Delta and Chobe National Park are among the 21 atlas places where the Arrow-marked Babbler is recorded. Records concentrate most in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Botswana, though the map also spans Namibia and Mozambique. The atlas holds about 115,000 records of the species across 14 countries, mapping where these records cluster.
Of the 48 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Mapungubwe National Park, the Arrow-marked Babbler is the 7th most recorded.
