URL: http://worldwildlife.org/science/ecoregions/biomes.cfm

Description:
Biogeographic areas are divided into biomes and further divided into hundreds of ecoregions. Each ecoregion provides a photo, description, size, location, and conservation status. Other features are a glossary and the article from the November 2001 issue of BioScience describing this project, the effort of more than a thousand biogeographers, taxonomists, conservations, and ecologists.
