Description
This map shows the modeled distribution for Macrotus californicus within the boundaries of the Desert Renewable Energy Conservation Plan (DRECP). It is based on habitat identified for the DRECP from the DRECP Landcover dataset, which is based primarily on GAP vegetation data and community surveys by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW). Other data used were mine data from the Department of Conservation, springs and seeps from the Geographic Names Information System, and California Ecological Sections from the USDA Forest Service.

The California leaf-nosed bat model output was rasterized by CBI at 270m resolution and generalized using majority filter and boundary clean techniques; areas smaller than 10 pixels were removed from the final product.

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