Range size (Acropora filiformis)

ID: 138

Class: Geographical

Description:

Geographic range size of species calculated from shapefiles. Be aware that there are different definitions of range size. For example, Veron (2000) range sizes are the sum of ecoregion sizes in which a species occurs; whereas, Hughes et al. (2013) range sizes capture the full extent of a species and so will be larger than Veron (2000) range sizes. Largest range size is used when species are synonymized.
