The realm map on this page, though very nicely done, contains some major inaccuracies. For instance, Sulawesi is classified as Indo-Malay when it should be Australasian. I'm looking into fixing it, but meanwhile not sure how to flag this -- would it be appropriate to note on the main page that it is in error?

The position of Sulawesi and the rest of Wallacea is debatable and the boundary between the Autralasian and Indo-Malay (Oriental Regions) depends on whether you use Wallace's Line or Lydekker's Line. More troubling for me is the suggestion that the Afrotropical realms extends into Iran, something I have not seen anywhere else, and the curious boundary in southern China, which again I cannot find in any other map. The map claims to be based on Udvardy (1975) but it clearly isn't. Where was it sourced? It is a little worrying as this map appears very high in any search for zoogeographic realms. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.205.241.176 (talk) 21:25, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
