Además, hay 6 sitios Ramsar, 4 reservas de la biosfera de la Unesco y 2 sitios patrimonio de la humanidad.​ Las diversas catalogaciones pueden hacer cambiar el número de parques nacionales y reservas. La diversidad y el endemismo en Sri Lanka son muy elevados. De las 3.210 plantas con flores, de 1.025 géneros, 916 especies y 18 géneros son endémicos.
