Distribution map
Distribution - 2017
This map shows the observed distribution of the Brown-headed Honeyeater for 2017.
The red circles are the grid cells where Brown-headed Honeyeater have been reported.
The transparency of the red circles indicate how many surveys sheets were submitted for that grid cell; the darker the red the more reliable the data. Of the 315 grid cells with reports, 83 had only one sheet; an example is grid number M6.
The size of the circle represents the reporting rate. The maximum reporting rate for Brown-headed Honeyeater was 100.0% (eg grid number M6) and the minimum was 0.2% (eg grid number L13). 
Distribution - all years
This map shows the observed distribution of the Brown-headed Honeyeater for all years.
The red circles are the grid cells where Brown-headed Honeyeater have been reported.
The transparency of the red circles indicate how many surveys sheets were submitted for that grid cell; the darker the red the more reliable the data. Of the 703 grid cells with reports, 55 had only one sheet; an example is grid number V28.
The size of the circle represents the reporting rate. The maximum reporting rate for Brown-headed Honeyeater was 100.0% (eg grid number V28) and the minimum was 0.1% (eg grid number I12).
