Coracias caudatus
Kruger National Park, the Okavango Delta and Serengeti National Park are among 35 atlas places where the Lilac-breasted Roller is recorded. Records of the bird concentrate in South Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, Botswana and Namibia. The atlas holds about 128,000 open records of this species across 13 countries, and the map shows where these records concentrate.
Records of Coracias caudatus span every month of the year, indicating it is recorded year-round.
Each bar is the share of its 200 month-dated grid cells with records in that month.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Lilac-breasted Roller 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.
