Species locality data

• Guyana GBIF data (spatially referenced species locality data for all taxa. Source: Global Biodiversity Information Facility).

Species distribution models

Species distribution models are derived from locality data and environmental variables used to predict probability of occurrence across Guyana using the software ‘Maxent‘.
