Manuel Antonio, Arenal and Monteverde are among the three atlas places where the Rufous-backed Wren is recorded. Its records concentrate in Costa Rica, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Guatemala, and the map follows where these sightings gather. The atlas holds about 204,000 open records of this bird from six countries.

Records of Campylorhynchus capistratus run through every month of the year.

Each bar is the share of its 198 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 Rufous-backed Wren 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.
