the iNaturalist Geomodel

iNaturalist has introduced a Geomodel.
Only observations with over 50 localities and 100 pictures are included.

Only species are considered.
The cell size (grain) is a hexagon of about 55km across.

Our question is.
Which species only occur in single grid cell?

How does one find out?
Go to the species page and on the "About" tab and click on the "Learn more about the Geomodel here"

Please report any that you find below.

There are two categories:

Please report them below with an explanation.

How?

search for the species, open the taxon page, go to the About tab, click on the "Learn more about the Geomodel here" option, on on the map page, zoom in and switch on the observations (on the layers icon top right).

I will summarize them in the top 4 comments.
