Terai-Duar savanna and grasslands
The Terai-Duar savanna and grasslands is a narrow lowland ecoregion at the base of the Himalayas, about wide, and a continuation of the Gangetic Plain. It is colloquially called ''Terai'' in the Ganges Basin east to Nepal, then ''Dooars'' in West Bengal, Bangladesh, Bhutan and Assam east to the Brahmaputra River. The world's tallest grasslands are found in this ecoregion, which are the most threatened and rare worldwide.〔Dinerstein, E., Loucks, C. (2001). 〕
==Location and description==
This tropical and subtropical grasslands, savannas, and shrublands biome stretches from western Bhutan to southern Nepal's Terai, westward to Banke, covering the Dang and Deukhuri Valleys along the Rapti River to India's Bhabhar and Doon Valleys. Each end crosses the border into India's states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar.〔 The eastern and central areas are wetter than the western end.
In Nepal, the wetlands of Koshi Tappu Wildlife Reserve, Beeshazar Tal in the bufferzone of Chitwan National Park, Jagdishpur Reservoir and Ghodaghodi Tal are designated Ramsar sites.〔Bhandari, B.B. (2009) ''Wise use of Wetlands in Nepal'' Banko Janakari, Special Issue February 2009: 10-17 (pdf )〕 The Sukla Phanta Wildlife Reserve is Nepal's largest patch of continuous grassland.〔Baral, H.S., Inskipp, C. (2009) ''The Birds of Sukla Phanta Wildlife Reserve, Nepal.'' Our Nature (2009) 7: 56-81〕
