Aquarium species with a confirmed native range
Species where a named checklist positively states the animal is native somewhere. This list is much shorter than it should be, and the reason is a property of the literature rather than of the animals.
What this page does not say
Absence from this page does not mean a species has no native range. It means no checklist AquariumHQ holds has coded one — and only five datasets in the entire harvest assert nativeness at all, against 137 that assert introduction.
83 species
Countries are as the source coded them. A species appears once, with every country any held checklist assigned to it under this status.
Where these statements come from
Every row above is a statement made by one of these checklists, retrieved through GBIF with the establishment means reproduced exactly as the source coded it.

Where a checklist recorded presence without coding how the species got there, the record is held as unstated and does not appear on any of these pages. Filling that in would be the single most damaging thing AquariumHQ could do to this dataset.
