Gulf of Guinea Conservation
The Gulf of Guinea Islands' Biodiversity Network is an informal network of scientists, conservationists and organisations interested in the biodiversity of the Gulf of Guinea islands of Bioko, Príncipe, São Tomé and Annobón. Network participants come from a wide range of disciplines including botanists, geologists, herpetologists, entomologists, malacologists, primatologists... and those just interested! The network distributes news of research, scientific and conservation developments and initiatives, environmental issues, publications, web resources etc that are relevant to the Gulf of Guinea islands and is also a forum for putting researchers with similar interests in contact. The Gulf of Guinea Conservation Group had its origin at a workshop on the biodiversity of the islands held at the Jersey Wildlife Preservation Trust in June 1993 entitled Biodiversity and Conservation of the Gulf of Guinea Islands. The workshop reviewed current knowledge on species richness and endemism in the islands and identified issues that threaten the conservation of the islands' unique fauna and flora. Papers delivered at the workshop were published in a special issue of the journal Biodioversity and Conservation (1994 Vol. 3 No. 9).
