Avifauna Checklist Dataset in the Western and Brong Ahafo Regions of Ghana

The study areas for the avifauna checklist data collection were the Western and Brong Ahafo regions in Ghana. Ecologically, these regions fall within the transitional, dry semi deciduous, dry deciduous, moist ever green and wet ever green forests zones of Ghana, with parts of the area falling within the wildfire prone areas. These areas are characterized by high diversity of fauna species. The sampling of the species were restricted to thirteen (13) selected forest reserves that were found between latitudes 7.906669 North and 5.317087 South and longitudes-3.006151 West and -1.854438 East and their adjoining corridors.
