Species don't care much for administrative borders so until we have the ability to store actual geographical data there is not much to do. Sure, for some islands or lakes it might make sense to tie it to another item but those are special cases for a problem that should be more generally solved.

Hi Andy !
Thanks ! But, yeah both of those are not useful... because they are image based and not DATA based.
I need a property that holds location data, so that anyone can build those images and maps. This is WikiDATA.
Hmm, location data... so location with a qualifier for "native" or some such ? (any precedent here ?) But that would be flipping it around and possibly would make querying for data more difficult by map/image builders.

Is there a property for "indigenous to" or "native in" for Plants usage

The nearest I can find is:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P181
"taxon range map image"
and:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P1846
"distribution map"
