South of the taiga are a belt of Temperate broadleaf and mixed forests and Temperate coniferous forests.
Formerly the region was mostly covered with forests and woodlands, but heavy human use has reduced much of the region to the sclerophyll shrublands known as chaparral, matorral, maquis, or garrigue.
Central Asia and the Iranian plateau are home to dry steppe grasslands and desert basins, with montane forests, woodlands, and grasslands in the region's high mountains and plateaux.

 Temperate broadleaf and mixed forests - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Temperate broadleaf and mixed forests are a temperate and humid biome.
In southern Australia, extremely infertile, nutrient deficient soils give a very different biome with evergreen eucalypt trees whose small, hard leaves are adapted to stay on the tree for a long period as replacement more often is far too costly as there is almost no available phosphorus.

 Terrestrial Ecoregions -- Changjiang Plain evergreen forests (PA0415)
The Changjiang (Yangtze) River emerges from the Three Gorges to flow across 1,000 km of low lying alluvial plain in a series of "nine intestine-like bends." Here the Chiangjiang Basin supports vegetation of subtropical to temperate oak forest on well-drained alluvial deposits and low hills.
This ecoregion is delineated to the south and west by the hills that enclose the lower Chiangjiang Plain, and to the north by a low watershed divide that marks the Huang He (Yellow River) Plain.

 GLOBAL ECOLOGICAL ZONING FOR THE GLOBAL FOREST RESOURCES ASSESSMENT 2000
The temperate domain is largely dominated by the “Mesophytic deciduous broadleaved and mixed broadleaved-coniferous forests (F)” and the boundary between the oceanic zone (TeDo) and the continental zone (TeDc) roughly coincides with the boundary between F5a, forests dominated by beech and F3 to the east.
The latter are mixed oak-hornbeam forests and presence of hornbeam replacing beech indicates a continental climate.
Besides F3, type D8 “mixed forest dominated by conifers” is a major vegetation of TeDc and the northern limit forms the boundary with the Boreal coniferous forests (Ba) to the north.
