Stenella attenuata
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Hawaiʻi Volcanoes 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 April, July, August, October and December, with the widest coverage in April, July, August, October 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: 1 square of 25 km carry records for Pantropical Spotted Dolphin in and around Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, and the 19 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.
The Osa Peninsula, Corcovado, and Manuel Antonio are the three atlas places where the Pantropical Spotted Dolphin is recorded. Records concentrate most heavily in Guadeloupe, Taiwan, and the United States, followed by Martinique and Mexico. Across its range, the atlas holds 2,463 records of the species from 28 countries.
Of the 5 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park, the Pantropical Spotted Dolphin is the 3rd most recorded.
