  Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Version 2012. Georeferenced to the approximate geographic center of Foengoe Island in Kabalebo, Suriname. Used clues from other locality descriptions and Google Image Gallery (georeferenced photographs) to find Foengoe Island in the Coppename River (within the Raleigh Vallen Nature Reserve area). Used the Google Maps - What's Here Tool to find the coordinates of the approximate geographic center of the island. Used the Google Maps - Measure Distance Tool to find the linear extent by measuring from the selected coordinates to the farthest extent of the island. Input coordinates, linear extent (1320.0 m), and measurement error (5 m) into the MaNIS Georeferencing Calculator to find the uncertainty radius (according to Georeferencing Quick Reference Guide, Named Place: Defined Area).
