Laurie,

It is an impressive cliam but I wouldn't have a clue what the basis of "one 
spot" means. The statement that the 324 species were "seen", not just 
"recorded" is easily the most incredible part of the feat.

Apparently Manu NP in Peru holds the record with 324 species - 
http://www.kuelapperu.com/other-peru-destinations/destinations/madre-de-dios-manu.html

Does anyone know the basis of this record and the size of the area that 
constituted the "one spot"?  [Manu NP is almost twice the size of the WTMA in 
Queensland].

Regards, Laurie
