Improvement needed

This is surely an important article, but it needs some major quality checks! I don't know about the fauna, but concerning plants, there is lots of nonsense, e.g. shea as an endemic, bougainvillea as a crop and lots of outdated information, e.g. the 1054 spp. --Marco Schmidt (talk) 13:56, 11 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
