Sky Island Provinces

Project Managers: Madrean Archipelago Biodiversity Assessment Projects

Sky Island Alliance's MABA project is a visionary initiative to catalog, protect, and restore one of the world's premier biodiversity hotspots. Over the next few years we will inventory the wildlands and wildlife of the Sonoran Sky Islands — a region of incredible biological wealth — while implementing community-based conservation, restoration and education activities that are key to the integrity of natural and human environments. Warning: Species lists associated with individual sky islands are automatically generated, and are incomplete in many instances. Use these lists with caution.

Warning: Species lists associated with individual sky islands are automatically generated, and are incomplete in many instances. Use these lists with caution. Research Checklists Research checklists are pre-compiled by biologists. This is a very controlled method for building a species list, which allows for specific specimens to be linked to the species names within the checklist and thus serve as vouchers. Specimen vouchers are proof that the species actually occurs in the given area. If there is any doubt, one can inspect these specimens for verification or annotate the identification when necessary.
