Site characteristics
Boundialé-Odienne is an area that was surveyed as part of the Pan African Programme (PanAf). The site is characterised by subtropical dry forest and savanna, punctuated by inselbergs and wet gallery forests (Cohen, H. pers. comm. 2022). The area encompasses numerous classified forests.

| Area | Unknow |
| Coordinates | 9.499024, -7.107348 |
| Designation | Unclassified |
| Habitat types | Subtropical/tropical dry shrubland, subtropical/tropical dry forest, savanna, rocky areas (e.g., inland cliffs, mountain peaks) |
IUCN habitat categories Site designations
Ape status
A minimum of two nests and two faecal samples were recorded during a 2015 survey; local villagers reported the presence of chimpanzees (Cohen, H. pers. comm. 2022). Community members were questioned in 30 villages associated with 20 classified forests.

| Species | Year | Abundance estimate (95% CI) | Density estimate [ind./ km²] (95% CI) | Encounter rate (nests/km) | Area | Method | Source | Comments | A.P.E.S. database ID |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Pan troglodytes verus | 2015 | Present | Boundialé-Odienne | Interview method & Index survey (reconnaissance walk) | Cohen, H. pers. comm. 2022 | Recce (covering less than 20 km) and interview survey. |
Threats
The classified forests in the area have not been managed, and most of them are simply demarcations on a map, so the forests have been severely degraded (Cohen, H. pers. comm. 2022).
