Nannopterum brasilianum
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Tierra del Fuego 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. 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 Neotropical Cormorant in and around Tierra del Fuego National Park, and the 1,287 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.
Arenal and Tortuguero are the two atlas places where the Neotropical Cormorant is recorded. Its records concentrate in the United States, Mexico, Chile, Argentina and Costa Rica, and the atlas holds about 799,000 open records of the bird from 19 countries. This map follows where those records concentrate.
Of the 7 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Tierra del Fuego National Park, the Neotropical Cormorant is the 5th most recorded.
