Английская Википедия:Andohahela National Park
Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox Protected area
The Andohahela National Park is situated in Anosy in the south-east of Madagascar. It is remarkable for the extremes of habitats that are represented within it. The park covers Шаблон:Convert of the Anosy mountain range, the southernmost spur of the Malagasy Highlands and contains the last humid rainforests in the southern part of Madagascar.
The Park was inscribed in the World Heritage Site in 2007 as part of the Rainforests of the Atsinanana.[1]
Access
This park can be accessed by the unpaved Provincial road RIP118[2] from Soanierana.
History
Andohahela has been a protected area since 1939 but did not become a national park until 1998.[3]
Geography
Andohahela National Park is Шаблон:Convert north-west of Tôlanaro and at the southern end of the Malagasy Highlands. The park is divided into three zones. The first, Malio, ranges from Шаблон:Convert to the summit of Pic d' Andohahela at Шаблон:Convert, and has dense lowland and montane rainforest with more than two hundred species of tree ferns, orchids, wild vanilla, lemurs and many birds. The second, Ihazofotsy-Mangatsiaka, contains dry spiny forest with rare birds and reptiles in altitudes ranging from Шаблон:Convert to Шаблон:Convert at the summit of Pic de Vohidagoro. The third zone, Tsimelahy, is mainly at an altitude of Шаблон:Convert, and contains the unique Ranopiso transitional forest. The mountains form a natural barrier to the moist trade winds that blow from the east, causing on the eastern side a rainfall of Шаблон:Convert per year that supports one of the few rainforests south of the Tropic of Capricorn. At the western edge of the park, the rainfall is just Шаблон:Convert per year and the resulting vegetation is a dry spiny forest characteristic of southern Madagascar.[3][4]
Several circuits within each of the habitat types of the park can be accessed by road from the town of Tolagnaro. Detailed information on arranging trips is available from the tourism information office or from the Madagascar National Parks Association office in Tolagnaro.[3]
Flora and fauna
The variety of habitats within Andohahela is mirrored in the richness of species that are found there, and the park is the richest place in Madagascar for lemurs. Fifteen species have been recorded, including two of Madagascar's most emblematic species, the ring-tailed lemur and Verreaux's sifaka.[4] Some rare species of geckos, turtles and snakes are among the 67 species of reptiles found in the park, 130 species of birds and fifty species of amphibians. The Triangle palm is found only here.[3]
