I am always suspicious of any of these that chuck Meganesia/Sahul and NZ into a single grouping at any level except political.
Land of marsupials vs no land mammals.
Eucalyptus vs way more diverse assemblage.
Very different indigenous land management between the two.
Comes across as a little lazy.

- stevenjgarner 3y agoYes it lost a lot of integrity for me when it shows New Zealand as having one single ecological system (bioregion) - a country arguably as biodiverse as the entire USA which it shows having at least 18 bioregions. Disappointing.
- Chilko 3y agoIn the layers button you can select ecoregions instead, and you'll see NZ has several of those.
- jagger27 3y agoIn the interactive map linked upthread you can see further subdivisions, of which there are twelve.
- Affric 3y agoAlready seen it homie. They're still in the top level grouping.
