		General characteristics The EBA comprises Timor and its associated islands of Sawu, Roti and Semau (in eastern Nusa Tenggara Timur and Timor Timur provinces of Indonesia), and Wetar (in south-east Maluku province).
		The natural vegetation of the islands is deciduous monsoon forest, woodland and savanna, with some isolated patches of semi-evergreen rain forest on the south-facing sides of the mountains where the land receives rain from the onshore winds, and montane forest above c.900 m on the higher mountains (Whitmore 1984).
		The forests at Bipolo, Buraen, Camplong and Soe in western Timor are also important for many of the restricted-range bird species (Noske and Saleh 1993).
