Taxonomic Coverages

Geographic Coverages

The Coastal Forests of East Africa are a chain of relict forest and thicket patches set within savannah woodlands, wetlands and agricultural land. The forests extend from Southern Somalia to Southern Mozambique and west to Malawi. They have been defined by WWF as the ‘Eastern Africa Coastal Forests Ecoregion’ and contain two WWF Global 200 ecoregions: the Northern and the Southern Zanzibar-Inhambane Coastal Forest Mosaics
