The country of [[Solomon Islands]] includes portions of two [[archipelago]]es - the southern portion of the [[Solomon Islands archipelago]], and the [[Santa Cruz Islands]], which are the northern extension of the [[Vanuatu]] archipelago. The geographic and ecological boundaries that define [[ecoregion]]s can differ from political boundaries.
==Terrestrial==
The Solomon Islands are in the [[Australasian realm]]. The Solomon Islands' two terrestrial ecoregions are in the [[tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests]] [[biome]].
