MAINLAND CHINA

China is the second largest and the most biologically diversecountry in the Asia region, and contains almost all types of wetland(except Arctic tundra and tropical peat swamp forest). However,many of its wetlands, particularly those in the eastern half of thecountry, are under serious pressure from human usage anddisturbance. The remaining wetlands on the riverine floodplainsin north-east China, notably the Sanjiang plain and the Nen Jiang–Sungari basin, are important breeding grounds for manywaterbirds, including threatened species such as Oriental StorkCiconia boyciana and Red-crowned Crane Grus japonensis.Wetlands in the steppes and deserts of northern China are alsoimportant breeding and passage areas for many waterbirds,including the threatened Relict Gull Larus relictus. The coastalwetlands of eastern and southern China are vital for the migratorywaterbirds of the East Asian-Australasian flyway, with highproportions of the global populations of many shorebirds and otherwetland-dependent species moving through this part of China inspring and autumn, and the main breeding grounds of thethreatened Saunders’s Gull Larus saundersi and Chinese Crested-tern Sterna bernsteini are also on the east coast of China. Theremaining large lakes and marshlands in the lower Yangtze basinsupport very large numbers of wintering waterbirds, including highproportions of the global populations of several threatened species,including Swan Goose Anser cygnoides, Lesser White-frontedGoose A. erythropus, Siberian Crane Grus leucogeranus, White-naped Crane G. vipio and Swinhoe’s Rail Coturnicops exquisitus.Other threatened waterbird species with most or all of theirbreeding ranges in China are White-eared Night Heron Gorsachiusmagnificus (not strictly a wetland-dependent species), Crested IbisNipponia nippon, Black-necked Crane Grus nigricollis and StreakedReed-warbler Acrocephalus sorghophilus. The first wetland

inventory in China (Lu Jianjian 1990) was an updated edition ofthe relevant section of the IUCN regional inventory (Scott 1989).This inventory described in full 217 wetlands that cover a total of23,220,011 ha (including one site in Hong Kong and five inTaiwan). In recent years China has been very active in theconservation of wetlands, including through the listing of 23 newRamsar Sites between 2002 and 2005. A national wetlandconservation action plan was published by the State ForestryAdministration in 2000, which included a long-term strategy (to2020) for wetland conservation. Local legislation for wetlandconservation has also been enacted at the provincial level (e.g. inGansu and Heilongjiang Provinces).

Twenty-nine Ramsar Sites have been designated in mainlandChina, of which 23 overlap with IBAs. An additional 205potential Ramsar Sites have been identified throughout China,with at least one in every province, autonomous region andmunicipality. However, designated and potential Ramsar Sitesare particularly concentrated in the following major wetlandregions: on the riverine floodplains in north-east China, fivedesignated Ramsar Sites overlap with IBAs and there are almost40 potential Ramsar Sites; in the steppes and deserts of northernChina, two designated Ramsar Sites (both in Inner Mongolia)overlap with IBAs and there are almost 50 potential Ramsar Sites;along the coasts of eastern and southern China, six designatedRamsar Sites overlap with IBAs and there are almost 50 potentialRamsar Sites; in the lower Yangtze basin, two designated RamsarSites overlap with IBAs and there are six potential Ramsar Sites;along the Yellow River, no designated Ramsar Sites overlap withIBAs and there are about 11 potential Ramsar Sites; and on theQinghai-Tibetan plateau, five designated Ramsar Sites overlapwith IBAs and there are almost 30 potential Ramsar Sites.
