Data presentation DATA PRESENTATION HABITAT OVERVIEW Wallacea The habitat region accounts which form the major part of F F 0 this book have been prepared in a standardised way. The 0 8 opening page of each account summarises the number of 8 globally threatened species that occur there, the habitat requirements and altitudinal ranges of these birds, and the countries and territories which the region covers. The special features and global importance of the region are highlighted in the summary text, including whether it overlaps with one of Conservation International’s Global Hotspots (see pp.20–21).
