Tiputini Biodiversity Station, Research station in Yasuní Biosphere Reserve, Ecuador.
The Tiputini Biodiversity Station covers 638 hectares of primary lowland rainforest on the north bank of the Tiputini River in eastern Ecuador.
Universidad San Francisco de Quito established the station in 1994 in partnership with Boston University to conduct ecological research in the Amazon rainforest.
The research facility maintains collaborative relationships with Huaorani communities who inhabit nearby territories and support conservation initiatives.
The station provides laboratories, nine basic cabins, and a cafeteria for scientists conducting field research, with limited internet access due to its remote location.
The facility records the highest diversity of reptiles, amphibians, insects, birds, and bats documented in any single location across South America.
