Motivation
[edit]This is very important data to better understand what are species of a determinate region, we only have a non-structured information right now, the map of rage P181. Rodrigo Tetsuo Argenton (talk) 19:23, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
To improve the localization of species, this property have a significant educational value, allowing filters of regions that have the presence of species. Different from endemic (Property:P183, that is exclusive of one area. (Moved from description ArthurPSmith (talk) 17:17, 8 June 2021 (UTC))

Comment as taxon range map image (P181) is currently called "taxon range image map", maybe this should be called "taxon range", not just "range". --- Jura 15:15, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
- I agree Christian Ferrer (talk) 17:41, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

Comment The current implementation of taxa range neglects the temporal component. A taxa range is spatio-temporal and thus should have a start & end datetime and a geographic extent. 7yl4r (talk) 21:30, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
