Molossus rufus
Osa Peninsula is the atlas place where the Black Mastiff Bat is recorded, with records gathering most thickly in Mexico, Paraguay, Argentina, Guyana and Suriname. The atlas holds about 430 open records of this mammal from 16 countries.
Recorded seasons differ by region because this species occurs in both hemispheres. Each place page in the atlas shows the particular months when it is recorded there.
These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Black Mastiff Bat as much as where it lives. 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.
