Ateles geoffroyi
The Osa Peninsula, Tortuguero and Corcovado are among the five atlas places where the Black-handed Spider Monkey is recorded. Records of Ateles geoffroyi concentrate in Costa Rica, Mexico, Guatemala, Belize and Panama, with 889 records held across eight countries.
Recording peaks from January to March, while the months with the fewest records are August, September and October.
Each bar is the share of its 42 month-dated grid cells with records in that month.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Black-handed Spider Monkey as much as where it lives. Cells are up to 25 km across, and every location is generalised to its cell.
Generalised encounter areas, not exact locations. Each shape is a grid cell coloured by how likely the species is there.
Conservation status not assessed here yet, so every location is generalised to its grid cell.
