Although some remnants of archaic flora, including species and genera extinct in the rest of the world, have persisted as endemic to such coastal mountain and shelter sites, their biodiversity was reduced.
The flora of these forests is similar to that of the warm-temperate and subtropical laurel forests of East Asia, including oaks (Quercus), tanoak (Lithocarpus), chinquapin (Castanopsis), Lauraceae, Theaceae, and Clethraceae.
The laurel forest flora is usually strong and vigorous and the forest regenerates easily; its decline is due to external forces.

The laurel forests of Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand are home to species related to those in the Valdivian laurel forests, including Southern Beech (Nothofagus, fossils of which have recently been found in Antarctica[23]) through the connection of the Antarctic flora.

Humans arrived in Australia 50xe2x80x9360,000 years ago, and used fire to reshape the vegetation of the continent; as a result,[citation needed] the Antarctic flora, also known as the Rainforest flora in Australia, retreated to a few isolated areas composing less than 2% of Australia's land area.
New Guinea also has many additional elements of the Antarctic flora, including southern beech (Nothofagus) and Eucalypts.
