Biodiversity Heritage Site information


Biodiversity Heritage Sites are notified areas of biodiversity importance in India.

The Indian State Government can notify the Biodiversity Heritage Sites in consultation with local governing bodies under Section 37 of Biological Diversity Act of 2002. These areas are considered unique and fragile ecosystems. They can be either terrestrial, coastal and inland waters or marine ecosystems.[1][2][3]
