Golden-olive Woodpecker

Colaptes rubiginosus

Overview

Arenal and Monteverde are the two atlas places where the Golden-olive Woodpecker is recorded, with records gathering most thickly in Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Ecuador and Belize. The atlas holds about 177,000 open records of this bird from 16 countries. This map shows where those records concentrate across its range.

Because this species is recorded in both hemispheres, the months it is most visible differ by region. Each place page in the atlas shows the particular months recorded for that area.

These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Golden-olive Woodpecker 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.
