Dawna Range

The Dawna Range, also known as Dawna Hills (Burmese ''Dawna Taungdan'';〔(Geographical names of Myanmar )〕 (タイ語:ทิวเขาดอยมอนกุจู)),〔(Northern Thailand )〕 is a mountain range in eastern Burma and northwestern Thailand. Its northern end is located in Kayah State where it meets the Daen Lao Range, a subrange of the Shan Hills. The range runs southwards along Kayin State as a natural border with Mon State in the west forming parallel ranges to the northern end of the Tenasserim Hills further south and southeast. The Dawna Range extends east of the Salween southwards from the Shan Hills for about 350 km, at the western limit of the Thai highlands.〔''The Physical Geography of Southeast Asia'', Avijit Gupta, Oxford University Press, 2005. ISBN 978-0-19-924802-5〕 Its southern end reaches the Thai-Myanmar border in the Umphang area, entering Thailand west of Kamphaeng Phet. The Thungyai Naresuan Wildlife Sanctuary is in the Thai side of the range.〔(UNESCO website for the Thungyai - Huai Kha Khaeng World Heritage Site )〕
Some geographers include the Dawna Range as the western and the southern part of the Thanon Thong Chai Range (เทือกเขาถนนธงชัย). The highest point of the range is 2,080 m high Mela Taung;〔(Mela Taung, Myanmar )〕 2,005 m high Mulayit Taung is located at the southern end of the range.〔(William Wilson Hunter. ''The Imperial Gazetteer of India'' (Volume 4) )〕
==Ecology==
The Dawna Range provides a habitat for the tiger,〔(Tiger Habitat in the Dawna Tenasserim Landscape )〕 the wild Asian elephant and Fea's muntjak. Endangered species in the area are the plain-pouched hornbill and Gurney's pitta.〔(Western Forest Complex (Thailand/Myanmar) )〕 There are other rare species some of which have only recently been discovered.〔(New Mekong discoveries highlight need for urgent action )〕
This narrow steep-sided range is geologically and ecologically homogeneous with the neighboring head of the Tenasserim Hills and the Karen Hills further north, so that frequently it is considered as a whole under the name "Dawna
Tenasserim"〔(WWF - Landscape Manager, Dawna Tenasserim Landscape )〕 or as "Kayah-Karen/Tenasserim".〔(Global 200 ecoregion: Kayah-Karen / Tenasserim Moist Forests )〕 The Dawna Range is covered with tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests. The Kayah-Karen montane rain forests that cover the mountains are part of the Kayah-Karen/Tenasserim moist forests ecoregion〔(Kayah Karen Tenasserim Ecoregion )〕 which is included in the Global 200 list of ecoregions identified by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) as priorities for conservation.
