East Saharan montane xeric woodlands

The ecoregion covers the higher elevations of the Ennedi Plateau and the Ouaddaï Highlands of eastern Chad and the extinct volcano system Jebel Marra in Darfur, western Sudan. These mountain ranges rise above the semi-desert sahelian Acacia savanna at the southern edge of the Sahara Desert. The ecoregion covers an area of 27,900 square kilometers (10,800 sq mi). The summer rains are irregular, even more so in Chad than on Jebel Marra, which has two crater lakes.
