Sangha Trinational

The Sangha Trinational  comprises a major conservation initiative created by coordinated agreement between three countries, namely, Cameroon, the Republic of Congo and the Central African Republic.   The total area involved includes a major portion of all three of these relatively large West-central African countries, and includes a core protected area comprising designated nature reserves within each country that bound the Sangha River. This combined nature protection area includes the Nouabalé-Ndoki National Park in the Congo, the Lobéké National Park in Cameroon, and the Dzanga-Sangha Reserve in the Central African Republic. The centre of African diversity for Sapotaceae appears to be in this part of the continent, and a total of 10 genera and 23 species of Sapotaceae are recorded from within Sangha Trinational.
