Species range
Opt-in species-range overlay. Plants = WCVP native/introduced distribution (CC-BY-4.0, keyless via GBIF) joined to the WGSRPD level-3 polygons (TDWG, open); POWO is a named provenance link-out (its API is Cloudflare-gated). Animals = GBIF occurrence density (aggregate CC-BY floor). The animal density path is aggregate and cannot exclude the CC-BY-NC subset per record, exactly like living-gbif-density; the plant distribution path uses only the clean WCVP rows.
