Rainforest, South Island, New Zealand        Images © Mark A. Chappell

Fijiordland National Park, on the southern tip of the South Island of New Zealand, has some magnificent cool temperate rain forest. The primary trees are the Southern Beech (Nothofagus), a Gondwanaland relic that also occurs in Australia and southern South America. This picture was taken near Doubtful Sound.
