The biome called Taiga lies between the Tundra and temperate deciduous forests. It is the largest biome in the world apart from the five oceans, and is comprised mainly of coniferous forests that include flora like pines and larches. Taiga occupies major portions of Canada, Alaska, Sweden, FInland, Norway, and parts of many other North American and European-Asian countries. The type of flora found in these regions varies from place to place.
