Calidris minuta
Ngorongoro Conservation Area in Tanzania, Namib-Naukluft and Dorob National Park are among the 13 atlas places where the Little Stint is recorded. Records of this bird gather most thickly in Spain, India, Israel, Norway and South Africa. The atlas holds about 197,000 open records of Calidris minuta from 37 countries, and the map follows where these records concentrate.
Recorded seasons differ by region, and each place page shows the months recorded there.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Little Stint 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.
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.
