Figure 3

Extension of assumed logseries of estimated population sizes to predict the number of species in Amazonian forests. Grey dots in both panels are the estimated total population sizes of species recorded in the 2019 ATDN data set. The solid blue line in the main figure is the rank-abundance relationship predicted by a logseries with the average of estimates of number of species (15,874 spp). Dotted lines in the main panel delimit the rank-abundance for minimum and maximum of lower and upper limits 95% of the estimates. The lines in the inset panel are the mean and lower and upper bounds for the values of abundances estimates of the recorded species, also from averaging over all estimation methods.
