Relating to or found in the northern regions of the world, particularly the Arctic and northern continents.
From Greek 'arktos' (bear, north) + 'gaia' (earth). The term was coined by biogeographers to describe the zoogeographic realm covering the northern hemisphere's landmasses.
Scientists use 'Arctogaean' to describe animals and plants found across the entire northern hemisphere—it's basically the biological blueprint for creatures that survived the Ice Age!
