Notes: 30. 76. 8.
From „Atlas universel et classique de geographie ancienne, Romaine du monyen age, moderne et contemporaine al‘usage des etablissments d‘instruction publique par MM. Drioux et Ch. Leroy. Librairie classique d‘eugene belin. Paris. 1871.
Oceania also known as Oceanica, is a region centred on the islands of the tropical Pacific Ocean. Opinions of what constitutes Oceania range from its three subregions of Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia to, more broadly, the entire insular region between Asia and the Americas, including Australasia and the Malay Archipelago. The term is often used more specifically to denote a continent comprising Australia and proximate islands or biogeographically as a synonym for either the Australasian ecozone (Wallacea and Australasia) or the Pacific ecozone (Melanesia, Polynesia, and Micronesia apart either from New Zealand or from mainland New Guinea).
Approx. image size 42, 6 x 29, 4/48, 3 x 33, 4 cm.
