  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Referred to Geonames.org (http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-3.368_-72.01.html, accessed; 7/8/2015) and a map from "Project Amazonas" website (http://www.projectamazonas.org/files/images/loreto-map-rio-ampiyacu.jpg, accessed: 7/8/2015) for locality information for Estirón. Used the reference maps and Google Maps - Earth View to locate the village of Estirón, along Rio Ampiyacu in Maynas Province, Loreto, Peru. Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the village. Unable to discern the precise spatial boundaries of the village; used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to approximate the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the approximate geographic center of the nearest named place, the village of Oriente (http://www.geonames.org/maps/google_-3.368_-72.01.html, accessed: 7/8/2015), then halving this distance. Input coordinates, linear extent (1660.0 m), and measurement error (10 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius.
