QGIS Tutorial – How to Separate the Polygons from Multi Polygons

Question

I have a polygon (Multi polygon) which contain 5 species data. All are shown by its different ranges. I want to separate them because I want to analyze their ranges individually? Is there any way to make separate polygon for each in efficient way because I need to separate 100 of similar species in one polygon too

I am attaching my Picture of data with attribute table

Update 1

I try to do "split vector layer" it works, but it save each layer into GPKG file. Is it possible to get result in shape file. Because I need shp. file of each species in my further analysis in R.

Update 2

I don't get the option of saving project into .shp and etc in my output directory tab when I do split vector layers. And also in setting I changed the default extension in shapefile but I doesn't work.

Answer 1

Go to Vector < Data Management Tool < Split Vector Layer. There is one Advanced Parameters Select shp there.
