Dacnis cayana
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Iguaçu 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: 4 squares of 25 km carry records for Blue Dacnis in and around Iguaçu National Park, and the 7,701 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.
Osa Peninsula, Corcovado and Arenal are among the four atlas places where the Blue Dacnis is recorded, with records gathering most thickly in Brazil, Panama and Costa Rica. The atlas holds about 151,000 open records of this bird from 11 countries, including Colombia and Argentina. This map follows where those records concentrate.
Of the 56 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Iguaçu National Park, the Blue Dacnis is the 7th most recorded.
