Putting biodiversity on the map: priority areas for global conservation by , , , , , , , and (ISBN 0-946888-24-8) is a 1992 book published by the International Council for Bird Preservation. The book introduced the Endemic Bird Area (EBA) concept and argued for its use as a means of identifying important areas for the conservation of all biodiversity worldwide. The book starts with a number of sections outlining its overall aim, scope and methods. This is followed by a global overview, which is followed in turn by regional overviews for six regions:

| - Putting biodiversity on the map: priority areas for global conservation by , , , , , , , and (ISBN 0-946888-24-8) is a 1992 book published by the International Council for Bird Preservation. The book introduced the Endemic Bird Area (EBA) concept and argued for its use as a means of identifying important areas for the conservation of all biodiversity worldwide. The book starts with a number of sections outlining its overall aim, scope and methods. This is followed by a global overview, which is followed in turn by regional overviews for six regions:
* North and Central America
* South America
* Africa, Europe and the Middle East
* Continental Asia
* South-east Asian Islands, New Guinea and Australia
* Pacific Islands This is followed by a similar set of regional analyses for other groups of animals and plants. Two final sections set out recommendations for the use of EBAs in conservation priority setting, and a set of conclusions. A number of appendices give detailed data in tabular form on EBAs and their importance. The book does not describe the individual Endemic Bird Areas in detail; a subsequent more detailed publication, Endemic Bird Areas of the World: Priorities for Biodiversity Conservation does so, however. The book is 90 pages long. It has a foreword by Edward O. Wilson. (en)
