Each bar is the share of its 200 month-dated grid cells with records in that month.

Recorded in and around these atlas places

These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the African Pipit as much as where it lives. The atlas keeps a species' 200 best-recorded grid cells, so the map shows where records concentrate rather than its whole range. Cells are up to 25 km across, and every location is generalised to its cell.
