Euphonia laniirostris
Drawn from open occurrence records in and around Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary, 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: 2 squares of 25 km carry records for Thick-billed Euphonia in and around Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary, and the 3,350 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 Manuel Antonio are the three atlas places where the Thick-billed Euphonia is recorded. Records of this bird concentrate in Colombia, Panama, Ecuador, Costa Rica and Peru. The atlas contains about 224,000 open records from eight countries, and the map follows where these records gather.
