Stenella longirostris
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Fernando de Noronha Marine 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, August, September, November and December, with the widest coverage in January, August, September, 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 Spinner Dolphin in and around Fernando de Noronha Marine National Park, and the 20 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.
iSimangaliso Wetland Park and Manuel Antonio are the two atlas places where the Spinner Dolphin is recorded. Its records concentrate in Taiwan, French Polynesia, Réunion, the United States, and New Caledonia, with about 7,076 records across 46 countries. This map shows where these records gather.
