Note that the Western Ghats listing is a serial site made up of numerous separate clusters of reserves and parks (spanning all four states) rather than a single continuous park — a frequent point of confusion, since questions sometimes ask which individual park was inscribed when the real answer is "part of the composite Western Ghats serial listing."
