Establishing baselines in fauna diversity, phenology and abundance in key biodiversity hotspots
across Uganda through collaborative research and capacity building
REFNo: NS889ES
Our project will sample birds and bats targeting biodiversity hotspots adjacent to and within
protected areas in Uganda. Through multiple visits across the next six years we plan to sample in
distinct biomes such as the North (Moroto, Kidepo valley, Agoro-agu, Morungole, Achwa)
Northeast (Pian Upe, Nakapiprit, Matheniko-Bokora), East (Mount Elgon, Loporokocho, Bukwo),
Northwest (Otzi forest, Ajai wildlife reserve, Luuku forest) southwest (Mgahinga, Bwindi and
around lake Victoria (Buvuma Island, Kalangala, Bugala). These regions are known to support
unique and often locally endemic species. In addition, many of these areas, such as the Kidepo and
the overall Karamoja regions, are notably understudied compared to regions in Western Uganda
