Yunnan Plateau subtropical evergreen forests

The Yunnan Plateau subtropical evergreen forests is an endangered ecoregion in southwestern China.

These forests once covered the western parts of the Yungui Plateau but have been significantly reduced and replaced with agricultural land uses.

Territory that was once covered by the Yunnan Plateau subtropical evergreen forests includes most of the western Yungui Plateau which makes up the eastern half of Yunnan as well as parts of southern Sichuan, western Guizhou, and northwestern Guangxi.

Today, forest remnants are isolated along mountain ridges, karst hills, and steeper valleys where agriculture is not prevalent.

In other places in the ecoregion, the evergreen forests have been replaced by strands of dominating Yunnan pine.
