The Cauca Valley montane forests (NT0109) is an ecoregion in western Colombia.It covers the sides of the Cauca Valley, which runs from south to north between the Central and Western Ranges (cordilleras) of the Colombian Andes.The ecoregion is home to very diverse fauna and flora, due in part to its varied elevations and climates, in part to its position near the isthmus of Panama, the route along which North American species invaded South America and then diversified as they moved to the upper parts of the Andes.Little of the original habitat remains at lower levels, but higher up there are sizeable blocks of forest, some of which are protected.
