Solution

The correct option is B Endemic species
An 'endemic species' is one that is only found in a particular region and nowhere else in the world. Endemism is the ecological state of a species being unique to a defined geographic location, such as an island, nation, country or other defined zone, or habitat type; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. A bicolored frog is endemic to western ghat.
