Penelope purpurascens
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Cajas 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 May and October, with the widest coverage in May and October. 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 Crested Guan in and around Cajas National Park, and the 32 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, Tortuguero and Corcovado are among the six atlas places where the Crested Guan is recorded. Records of this bird concentrate primarily in Costa Rica, Ecuador and Guatemala, and the atlas holds about 137,000 records across 11 countries. The map shows where these records gather most thickly.
Of the 9 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Cajas National Park, the Crested Guan is the 8th most recorded.
