Patagioenas cayennensis
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Yasuní 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: 3 squares of 25 km carry records for Pale-vented Pigeon in and around Yasuní National Park, and the 5,656 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 Tortuguero are among five atlas places where the Pale-vented Pigeon is recorded. Records concentrate most in Panama, Colombia and Costa Rica, though the atlas also tracks it in Belize and Brazil. This map follows where about 257,000 open records from 18 countries gather, showing the areas where they concentrate most.
Of the 70 species with an atlas page recorded in and around Yasuní National Park, the Pale-vented Pigeon is the 4th most recorded.
