Species density (a relative measure of species richness) decreases poleward.  Functional diversity is highest in the Tropical Eastern Pacific and at dispersed hotspots at a range of latitudes. Colour classifications differ between maps due to different ranges and distributions of diversity values. Minimum and maximum observed values are provided in the key for each plot as effective numbers per 500 square meters.
