Field Sparrow Map and Data

Max Breeding Status # Quads # Priority Blocks # Total Blocks

Confirmed 357 297 442

Probable 212 216 308

Possible 62 56 90

Species Total 631 569 840

Total in Atlas 1132 1041 3854

Species Percentage 55.74 54.66 21.80

Species Total is the sum of all quads/priority blocks/total blocks the species was recorded in with at least a Possible breeding status. Total in Atlas is the number of quads/priority blocks/total blocks in the atlas with data (regardless of species). Species Percentage is the Species Total quads/priority blocks/total blocks divided by the Total in Atlas quads/priority blocks/total blocks.
