Behind the occurrence.

Choose an account recorded in Batu Islands. Its country-level evidence retains the named islands and qualifications; it is not a record of a sighting at an exact map point.

The shared collection

Snakes recorded here.

Each card opens the same species account used by the country lists. A shared island record does not imply occurrence in all countries sharing that island.
