Uatumã Biological Reserve, Biological reserve in Amazonas, Brazil
The Uatumã Biological Reserve extends across 938,720 hectares of dense tropical forest, encompassing sections of the Uatumã River and Jatapu River basins.
Established in 1990 with 560,000 hectares, the reserve expanded through a governmental decree in 2002 and joined the Central Amazon Ecological Corridor network.
Scientists utilize a standard RAPELD grid of 25 square kilometers for research projects, conducting studies on vegetation, biomass structure, and species composition.
The reserve spans three municipalities: Presidente Figueiredo at 47.89%, Urucará at 35.55%, and São Sebastião do Uatumã at 16.56% of the total area.
The Amazonian manatee and the sponge Anheteromeyenia ornata find protection within this reserve, which borders the Waimiri Atroari Indigenous Territory.
