  11. Title: Endemic Bird Areas in Kenya, 1998

    Contributors:

    Summary: This polygon shapefile depicts Endemic Bird Areas (EBAs) in Kenya.

Most of Kenya’s EBAs are located outside of parks and other protected areas, and all overlap or border densely settled, intensively farmed landscapes. This data was used in Map 5.3 in Nature's Benefits in Kenya: An Atlas of Ecosystems and Human Well-Being. Stattersfield, A.J., M.J. Crosby, A.J. Long, and D.C. Wege. (1998). Endemic Bird Areas in Kenya, 1998. BirdLife International. Available at: http://purl.stanford.edu/zr892st5071 Please note that this data is frequently updated.
