PIPA provides important natural habitats for in-situ conservation of globally important biological diversity, both marine and terrestrial. The Phoenix Islands are identified as a Key BiodiversityArea (KBA) by Conservation International and the coral reefs of PIPA are among the least disturbed coral reefs in the world. Currently more than 200 coral species are known but undoubtedly many moredeep water coral species. There are 514 species of reef fish, including several new species.
Five of the eight islands in PIPA are currently designated as Important Bird Areas by Birdlife Internationalas the Phoenix Islands are internationally recognized as a seabird haven. [ 2 ] Petrels , tropicbirds , boobies , frigatebirds .
PIPA islands such as Kanton, Rawaki and Enderbury have importantnesting beaches for threatened green turtles and possibly also for hawksbill turtles as well as safe breeding and feeding sites for both species.[1] Enderbury is one of the most important green turtlenesting sites in the Central Pacific.[2] Kanton and Orona lagoons host spectacular giant clam communities in sizes rarely seen elsewhere in the world.[1]
