Interesting case based on the source. If you add French Guiana, France, Reunion and New Caledonia, the totality would be more than enough for France to make this list. There is no caveat excluding territories to begin with and French Guiana is even considered an integral part of the country in any case. Not an expert so there might be a small overlap regarding the species, but not enough to disqualify France.
