Penyebaran Flora dan Fauna di Indonesia

Summary

This video discusses the distribution of flora and fauna in Indonesia, focusing on the country's inclusion in the Malesiana region, which features several distinct biomes. These include tropical rainforests, savannahs, seasonal forests, and steppes. The video also covers Wallace's and Weber's lines, which separate Indonesia's fauna into three types: Asiatic, Transitional, and Australasian. Key examples include orangutans, tigers, and kangaroos. The session concludes with a preview of the next topic on biodiversity conservation efforts.
