Spatial Occurrence Data from The Ornithological Collection of The Emeritus Professor Kazi Zaker Husain Museum of the Department of Zoology, University of Dhaka, Dhaka
<p>Natural history collections are important as they provide significant information about biogeography and conservation. Occurrence data from such collections aid our understanding of species distribution, provide valuable information about historical geographic ranges and shed light on habitat loss. Here, we report such occurrence data collected from the avian collections of the Emeritus Professor Kazi Zaker Husain Museum of the Department of Zoology, University of Dhaka, Dhaka which holds Bangladesh's largest natural history collection. We restored the specimens with mild damage. As no register of collections was found, we examined bird skins to identify species and associated field slips attached to the tarsus for any available information. We extracted the date and the place of collection, the name of the collectors and identifiers where available. The data were digitized and details of all locations were geo-referenced. </p>

FIGURE 1 in Two centuries of ornithological exploration of the Rio Doce Basin, southeastern Brazil. Part II-A catalogue of its birds and a gazetteer
FIGURE 1. Map of the study area, depicting the Rio Doce Hydrographic Basin and the Rio Barra Seca Hydrographic Basin, southeastern Brazil. Main reserves are depicted in green, rivers in blue, and main cities (above 50,000 inhabitants) in black. The red star depicts the location of the tailing dam that collapsed in Bento Rodrigues in 2015.
FIGURE 3 in Two centuries of ornithological exploration of the Rio Doce Basin, southeastern Brazil. Part II-A catalogue of its birds and a gazetteer
FIGURE 3. Sampling effort in the Rio Doce Basin, southeastern Brazil, measured as the number of bird records per each 0.25° x 0.25° grid cell, irrespective of the sampling method used. Note that several cells have never been sampled for birds, while a few cells have been heavily sampled.

FIGURE 2. Percentage of bird records for the Rio Doce Basin, southeastern Brazil, that we considered to be erroneous per decade (data from appendixes C and D). Numbers above bars indicate the absolute number of erroneous records per decade. When the publication did not specify the year when the record was made, we attributed it to the decade when the fieldwork was supposed to have been done or, when not available, to the decade of the publication. Records for the 19th century were pooled together.
