For Comparison, here are the major earth biomes
Tropical Rain Forest
The tropical rain forest is the most common biome on Rona. It covers almost one entire continetn and large chunks of the others. These forests are characterized by a large number of nectar and flesh fruit bearing plant species.
Savannah
The Savannah covers much of the two northern continents and is home to many large animals and is a favored habitat for Pharlans
Temperate Decidous Forest
Temperate deciduos foerst is found on all of the continents. it is second only to the grasslands in numbers of large animals.
Salt Marsh
The salt marsh makes up one enitre coninent. it has a high diversity of species but has few trees for Pharlans to live in and also has several vary large and dangerous predators which the Pharlans try to avoid.
Temperate Grassland
This grassland is also home to a large number of large animal species but the climate is somewhat colder.
Temperate Rain Forest
Temperate rain forest is not a common biome on Rona, however it is more abundant than on earth The Temperate rain forest on Rona even boasts some of the same species as earth such as the redwood and sequoia.
Boreal Forest
Boreal Forests are very uncommon and found only in the most northerly lattitudes and on the highest mountains.
Desert and Tundra
These two Biomes are the least common on Rona. As the planet is generally warm and wet, dry deserts and cold tundras do not form well. There are a few present but only in the most extreme locations
