It is due to a unique combination of factors: a confluence of currents attracting a wide range of marine life which in turn contributes to a wide range of existing ecosystems, low human populations, reefs left to grow in stable surroundings, and extensive conservation efforts. This all contributes toward the rich variety of species which are actively flourishing in Raja Ampat. Scientists are very interested in the vast diversity of marine life found here. Raja Ampat lies in the heart of the Coral Triangle and is home to the richest tropical coral reef bio-diversity recorded on Earth. The archipelago is host to 1125 species of fish, 700 species of Mollusks, and 543 species of Hard Corals ( 75% of total discovered species in the World). Raja Ampat's near shore habitats include large reefs, sea grass beds, mangrove forests, and karst formations. The high level of bio-diversity within the marine and terrestrial habitats have attracted wildlife expeditions dating back to the 17th Century by the legendary Naturalist Alfred Wallace. |
