Interim Biogeographic Regionalisation for Australia, Version 7This map depicts the Interim Biogeographical Regionalisation for Australia (IBRA) version 7. IBRA regions represent a landscape based approach to classifying the land surface, including attributes of climate, geomorphology, landform, lithology, and characteristic flora and fauna. Specialist ecological knowledge combined with appropriate regional and continental scale biophysical data sets were interpreted to describe these regions. 89 IBRA regions exist across Australia.
