The natural beauty and diversity of Panama is what draws tourists and naturalists to a republic that covers only 29,700 square miles. Between the close proximity of the Pacific and Atlantic oceans you will find several life zones that are home to hundreds of species of plants and animals.

Like Costa Rica, its neighbor to the north, Panama is a natural land bridge that links North and South America. Thus it has species from both continents as well as endemics.

Panama is host to the largest number of animal species in the world and has over 10,000 vascular plants. Its tropical forests are easily accessible and even within Panama City there is great opportunity to see wildlife.

Rainforest Publications took on the task of documenting the Panama flora and fauna in the following field guides.

Rainforest Publications' Fold-Out Field Guides are designed to slip into your pocket so that you can easily access our field guides and identify the critters you see while on your walk, hikes, and excursions through Panama.
