The Caribbean bioregion is a biogeography biogeographic region that includes the islands of the Caribbean Sea , which share a flora and fauna distinct from surrounding bioregions. The Caribbean bioregion, as described by the World Wildlife Fund , includes the Greater Antilles Cuba , Hispaniola , Puerto Rico , and Jamaica , the Lesser Antilles , the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos Islands , and Aruba , Bonaire , and Cura ao . It does not include Trinidad and Tobago these islands rest on South America s shallow continental shelf , and have been historically part of the South American continent. The climate of the ecoregion is tropical, and varies from humid to arid. Geology and topography also vary, with larger mountainous islands of continental rock, volcanic islands, and low lying coral and limestone islands. The bioregion includes Tropical moist forests , tropical dry forests , tropical pine forests , flooded grasslands and savannas , xeric shrublands , and mangrove s. The Caribbean bioregion s distinct flora and fauna was shaped by long periods of physical separation from the neighboring continents, allowing plants and animals to evolve in isolation. Other plants and animals arrived via long distance dispersal or island hopping from NorthAmerica and South America. Three mammal families are endemic to the bioregion the Solenodontidae includes two species of Solenodon , one species on Cuba, the other on Hispaniola. Fossil evidence shows that the family was once more widespread in NorthAmerica. Family Nesophontidae , or the West Indian shrews, contained a single genus, Nesophontes , which inhabited Cuba, Hispaniola, Puerto Rico and the Cayman Islands.
