Sichuan Trip Report

I was in Sichuan at the end of April. It was wet and the mammals didn’t like the rain any more than I did. But I still saw 22 species, including Takin, Tufted Deer, Chinese Giant Flying Squirrel and Chinese Serow. A trip report is here

Can someone tell me whether Sichuan is in the Paleartic or Oriental fauna zones?

cheers

The mountains are certainly Palearctic; as for the lowlands – depends on who you ask, but I think they are in Oriental for animals and Palearctic for plants.
We are planning to go there and to Quiling in mid-wintr, BTW
