The entire area has experienced a long period of biological isolation from other regions, and thus harbors a great many unique <a href="/wiki/Plant" title="Plant">plants</a> and <a href="/wiki/Animal" title="Animal">animals</a>. In this context, Australasia is limited to Australia, New Guinea, New Zealand, <a href="/wiki/New_Caledonia" title="New Caledonia">New Caledonia</a>, and neighbouring islands, including the <a href="/wiki/Indonesia" title="Indonesia">Indonesian</a> islands from <a href="/wiki/Lombok" title="Lombok">Lombok</a> and <a href="/wiki/Sulawesi" title="Sulawesi">Sulawesi</a> eastward. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Wallace_Line" title="Wallace Line">Wallace Line</a> to the west divides areas in the Indomalayan realm of tropical <a href="/wiki/Asia" title="Asia">Asia</a> which are or have at times been directly connected to the Asian mainland from islands that have never been so connected. <a href="/wiki/Borneo" title="Borneo">Borneo</a> and <a href="/wiki/Bali" title="Bali">Bali</a> lie on the western, Asian side. A second biological dividing line is <a href="/wiki/Lydekker%27s_Line" class="mw-redirect" title="Lydekker's Line">Lydekker's Line</a>, which similarly separates islands isolated by surrounding deep water from those associated with the <a href="/wiki/Sahul_Shelf" title="Sahul Shelf">Sahul Shelf</a> of the Australian continent. Islands between the two lines (e.g. Sulawesi, the Moluccas and Lombok through Timor) form the biogeographical area of <a href="/wiki/Wallacea" title="Wallacea">Wallacea</a>, a transition zone between the Indomalayan and Australasian realms populated entirely by aerial or <a href="/wiki/Oceanic_dispersal" title="Oceanic dispersal">oceanic dispersal</a> (although defined here as part of the Australasian realm). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Geology">Geology</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Australasian_realm&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Geology"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Australia, New Zealand and New Caledonia are all fragments of the ancient supercontinent <a href="/wiki/Gondwana" title="Gondwana">Gondwana</a>, the marks of which are still visible in the <a href="/wiki/Christmas_Island_Seamount_Province" title="Christmas Island Seamount Province">Christmas Island Seamount Province</a> and other geophysical entities. These three land masses have been separated from other continents, and from one another, for tens millions of years. All of Australasia shares the <a href="/wiki/Antarctic_flora" title="Antarctic flora">Antarctic flora</a>, although the northern, tropical islands also share many plants with Southeast Asia. </p><p>Australia, New Guinea, and Tasmania are separated from one another by shallow <a href="/wiki/Continental_shelf" title="Continental shelf">continental shelves</a>, and were linked together when the sea level was lower during <a href="/wiki/Ice_age" title="Ice age">ice ages</a>. They share a similar fauna which includes <a href="/wiki/Marsupial" title="Marsupial">marsupial</a> and <a href="/wiki/Monotreme" title="Monotreme">monotreme</a> mammals and <a href="/wiki/Ratite" title="Ratite">ratite</a> birds. <a href="/wiki/Eucalypt" title="Eucalypt">Eucalypts</a> are the predominant trees in much of Australia and New Guinea. New Zealand has no native land mammals, but also had ratite birds, including the <a href="/wiki/Kiwi_(bird)" title="Kiwi (bird)">kiwi</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Moa" title="Moa">moa</a>. The Australasian realm includes some nearby island groups, like <a href="/wiki/Wallacea" title="Wallacea">Wallacea</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Bismarck_Archipelago" title="Bismarck Archipelago">Bismarck Archipelago</a>, <a href="/wiki/Solomon_Islands" title="Solomon Islands">Solomon Islands</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Vanuatu" title="Vanuatu">Vanuatu</a>, which were not formerly part of Gondwana, but which share many characteristic plants and animals with Australasia. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Ecology">Ecology</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Australasian_realm&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Ecology"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Note that this zonation is based on flora; <a href="/wiki/Animal" title="Animal">animals</a> do not necessarily follow the same <a href="/wiki/Biogeography" title="Biogeography">biogeographic</a> boundaries.

On the other hand, there are few faunistic commonalities shared only by Australia and New Zealand, except some birds. Meanwhile, Australia, Melanesia and the Wallacea are united by a large share of similar animals, but few of these occur farther into the Pacific.
