Abstract: Bali Island is a part of Sundaland, and also close to the Lesser Sunda islands of Wallacea, such as Lombok, Sumbawa, Sumba, Flores and Timor. As such, it could have served as a direct step towards the Lesser Sunda islands during the Pleistocene, especially during the last glacial maximum about 20,000 years ago. Bali and the Lesser Sunda islands are separated by Lombok Strait, which forms part of Huxley's Line, separating the Sunda Shelf from Wallacea.
