Dickcissel Map and Data

Max Breeding Status # Quads # Priority Blocks # Total Blocks

Confirmed 86 60 91

Probable 155 115 192

Possible 40 41 55

Species Total 281 216 338

Total in Atlas 1132 1041 3854

Species Percentage 24.82 20.75 8.77

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.
