Biodiversity encompasses species richness, life richness, genetic diversity, and ecosystem diversity.Antalya province is one of Turkey’s key centers of biodiversity. It is also notably rich in endemic species. Recognizing, promoting, and protecting endemic and rare species is critical for the continuity of biodiversity. In this context, the endemic species present in and around Antalya were investigated. The species identified through the research are presented in this study, along with brief information about each species and the threats they face. Due to rapid population growth, the preservation of biodiversity in Antalya has become increasingly important. In particular, it is essential to protect the habitats of species under anthropogenic pressure. In conclusion, this study provides an overview of the endemic species in Antalya and emphasizes the importance of their conservation.
