Description
This map shows output from the UCSB statistical (Maxent) species distribution model for the California black rail, Laterallus jamaicensis coturniculus.

The UCSB Maxent output includes both continuous and thresholded datasets. The binary layer depicting predicted suitable habitat was derived using the equal training sensitivity and specificity threshold.

For Laterallus jamaicensis, Max Sensitivity + Specificity threshold = 0.0638; best AUC =0.9954; mean AUC = 0.9917.

Based on examination of species observation data and consultation with biologists, CBI used the model's broad extent output masked to within 10 km of the Colorado River and the following USFS ecoregion subsections: 322Cd, 322Cc, 322Cb. 

Disclaimer: Species occurrence data shown on map are not a 100% complete representation of all locations of a given species.
