    The ultimate range maps

    (Good point, but I'm too lazy -- to the point that I record stationary checklists so that I don't have to adjust the track length.)

    The ultimate range maps

    The layout is just cleaner, the way the sqares progressively divide into smaller squares (down to 1 km x 1 km (?) * ), not just 100 km x 100 km plus 20 km x 20 km, the map layers underneath showing the range and the green borders between regions, and, also, there's no sharp border between...

    The ultimate range maps

    For those who (like me) didn't use to know that the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) has its own range maps combining all available recording schemes, and very detailed ones, too (of course, some stray records of what may look like vagrants will be mistaken because the info is...
