Mimus gilvus
Arenal, Osa Peninsula and Manuel Antonio are the three atlas places where the Tropical Mockingbird is recorded. Its records concentrate in Mexico, Colombia, Belize, Panama and Venezuela, and the atlas map follows where these sightings gather. There are about 394,000 open records of Mimus gilvus across 20 countries.
Observers have recorded the species year-round, with records spanning every month of the calendar.
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 Tropical Mockingbird 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.
