The Purus-Madeira moist forests (NT0157) is an ecoregion in the central Amazon basin. It is part of the Amazon biome.The ecoregion covers a stretch of flat and relatively infertile land between the Purus and Madeira rivers, extending to the Solimões River (upper Amazon) in the north. It is isolated from other regions by the seasonally flooded várzea forest along these rivers, and has a high degree of endemism among its flora and fauna.The natural environment is relatively intact.The BR-319 highway was built along the length of the ecoregion in the early 1970s, but rapidly deteriorated and is now closed.
