Its records concentrate in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Kenya, with about 129,000 open records across 15 countries.

These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Green Wood Hoopoe 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.
