A species that is restricted in its distribution to a particular locality or region.
A species whose entire native range is particular to a restricted geographic area.
a native species restricted to a particular geographic region owing to factors such as isolation or in response to soil or climatic conditions
a species found only in specific areas or environments
Plants or animals that occur naturally in a certain region and whose distribution is relatively limited to a particular locality. Endemism is the occurrence of endemic species in an area.
a species native and confined to a certain region; having comparatively restricted distribution.
a species confined to a particular region and having, so far as is known, originated there.
a species whose natural occurrence is confined to a certain region and whose distribution is relatively limited.
species restricted to a particular geographic region or locality
A species that is restricted to a particular place (e.g., ecoregion) and is therefore found nowhere else on Earth. Endemic species are of particular conservation concern because options to conserve them are so geographically limited.
prevalent in or particular to a particular locality or region.
species that naturally occurs in only one area or region. For example, the redfin darter is a fish endemic to the rivers of the Ozark forests, and the Joshua tree is a plant endemic to the Mojave Desert.
