The Western Ghats and Sri Lanka region is one of the 36 biodiversity hotspots.
Sri Lanka is one of the earth's most
biologically diverse yet threatened terrestrial areas.
A biodiversity hotspot is a special place on earth which has at least 1500 endemic plants and has over 70% of original habitat already lost but still essential and critical for many bio-organisms. There are 36 Biodiversity hotspots around the world, covering only less than 2.4% of the earth surface. These are unique places on earth that need special attention. These hotspots are powerful scientific tools to help measure the pressure on the world’s biodiversity, which we can use to enhance species richness.
