A Rapid Biological Assessment of Two Classified Forests in South-Western Côte d'Ivoire

by Leanne E. Alonso, Francis Lauginie, and Guy Rondeau

Published 1 December 2005

This volume reports the findings of the 2002 Rapid Assessment Program survey in the dense lowland forests of Haute Dodo and Cavally. The survey revealed a large number of plant species that are found only in these forests, as are nearly half the forest's amphibians. The survey also documents twenty-six other endangered animal species in the region, making this area one of the most important for biodiversity conservation in West Africa.
