 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.
