Georeferencing Method: BioGeomancer, Guide to Best Practices for Georefer (Referred to Wikimapia.org for further locality information for Pico das Agulhas Negras (http://wikimapia.org/5867319/pt/Pico-das-Agulhas-Negras-2-791m, accessed: 7/9/2015). Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Agulhas Negras (peak), in Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, taking into account the added uncertainty of the word "nahe" (near) stated in the locality description. Used the reference material and Google Maps – Earth and Terrain Views to locate the mountainous area of Agulhas Negras. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the mountainous area of Agulhas Negras (-22.384444, -44.658333). Used the Google Maps – Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the mountainous area (using best judgement to determine, at: -22.371480, -44.669803), then doubled this distance (200%) to incorporate the added uncertainty of the word "near" in the locality description. Input: coordinates (-22.384444, -44.658333), coordinate precision (0.00001 degrees), datum (WGS84), linear extent (3.72 km), and measurement error (0.01 km) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (3732.0 m). According to the Biogeomancer Guide to Best Practices for Georeferencing, Near a Feature.)
