Chocó–Darién Moist Forests
The Chocó–Darién moist forests (NT0115) is a largely forested, tropical ecoregion of northwestern South America and southern Central America. The ecoregion extends from the eastern Panamanian province of Darién and the indigenous region of Guna Yala to almost the entirety of Colombia's Pacific coast, including the departments of Cauca, Chocó, Nariño and Valle del Cauca. This largely untouched, inaccessible expanse of jungle receives some of the planet's highest rates of precipitation, with the average rainfall measuring anywhere from 4,000 mm to 9,000 mm (around 13-30 ft) per year. Combined with high humidity and daily average temperatures of around 23.89 °C (75 °F), the foundation is set for a lush landscape brimming with species, harboring a huge wealth of plant, animal and fungal biodiversity. Many of the dominant tree species within the north of the ecoregion belong to such genera as the bongo ('' Cavanillesia''), wild cashew ('' Anacardium''), rubbe ...

Chocó Department
Chocó Department () is a department of the Pacific region of Colombia known for hosting the largest Afro-Colombian population in the nation, and a large population of Amerindian and mixed African-Amerindian Colombians. It is in the west of the country, and is the only Colombian department to have coastlines on both the Pacific Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean. It contains all of Colombia's border with Panama. Its capital is Quibdó. Chocó has a diverse geography, unique ecosystems and unexploited natural resources; however, its population has one of the lowest standards of living of all departments in Colombia. A major factor cited by the government is the rugged, montane rainforest environment and the hot, hyperhumid climate. These factors have limited any significant infrastructure improvements to the region, and Chocó remains one of the most isolated regions of Colombia, with no major transportation infrastructure built since initial foundations were laid down in 1967 for a hi ...

Arma (unattested) At least Anserma, Arma, and Caramanta are extinct.
