Motu One Reserve

The Motu One Reserve is a nature reserve encompassing the whole of the island and reef system of Motu One in the northern Marquesas Islands.

Green sea turtles nest on Motu One.

There is a large stand of Porolithon (Hydrolithon) that is unique in French Polynesia.

There are also a wide variety of pelagic birds nesting on the islets including a subspecies of the southern Marquesan reed warbler, the Mohotani Marquesan warbler (Acrocephalus mendanae consobrina) (Murphy & Mathews, 1928).
