Ecography, EarlyView.Occurrence records are fundamental for ecological and evolutionary research, providing key information on species' geographic ranges. However, these records are often taxonomically, spatially, and temporally biased, requiring caution in their use. Here, we analysed the spatial coverage of occurrence records for over 3500 snake species worldwide to ...
