Fiscal Flycatcher

Sigelus silens

Overview

Addo Elephant, Table Mountain and West Coast National Park are among ten atlas places where the Fiscal Flycatcher is recorded. Its records concentrate entirely in South Africa, and the atlas holds about 130,000 open records of the bird from this one country. Because the mapping is partial, the records show only where they concentrate.

Records of Sigelus silens span the entire year, occurring in every month.

Each bar is the share of its 200 month-dated grid cells with records in that month.

Recorded in and around these atlas places

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

Where you'll find them

Generalised encounter areas, not exact locations. Each shape is a grid cell coloured by how likely the species is there.
