Max Breeding Status # Quads # Priority Blocks # Total Blocks

Confirmed 546 480 694

Probable 472 494 698

Possible 37 42 140

Species Total 1055 1016 1532

Total in Atlas 1132 1041 3854

Species Percentage 93.20 97.60 39.75

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.
