Purple Gallinule
Porphyrio martinica
Osa Peninsula, Arenal and Tortuguero are among the six atlas places where the Purple Gallinule is recorded, with records concentrating in the United States, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia and Mexico. The atlas holds about 262,000 records of this bird from 20 countries. This map shows where those records concentrate rather than the full range of Porphyrio martinica.
Because the species is recorded in both hemispheres, seasons differ by region. Each place page in the atlas shows the particular months recorded there.

These are open occurrence records, so they show where people looked for and recorded the Purple Gallinule 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.
