You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.95.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 08:49, 2 November 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

The '''Northland temperate kauri forests''' is an [[ecoregion]] in northern [[New Zealand]], within the [[temperate broadleaf and mixed forests]] [[biome]].

==Location and description==
This ecoregion covers the northern end of [[North Island]]. The landscape is flat when compared with most of New Zealand and includes the regions of [[Northland Region|Northland]], [[Auckland Region|Auckland]] around the city of [[Auckland]] and [[Waikato Region|Waikato]] around the town of [[Hamilton, New Zealand|Hamilton]]. Kauri trees are found north of 38°S. The region also includes a number of offshore islands and some of New Zealand's few remaining original wetland habitats such as the [[Firth of Thames]], and the [[Kopuatai Peat Dome]] and the [[Whangamarino Wetland]] in the [[Hauraki Plains]]. The climate is warm and humid.

==Flora==
This area is home to a number of endemic plants especially in regions of Northland such as [[Cape Reinga]] and [[Te Paki]] which have at times been cut off from the rest of the island by high sea levels. The ecoregion is named for its most notable endemic species, the impressive [[Agathis australis|southern kauri]] trees, which can grow to 55m high and 20m round and has no lower branches but a long trunk of up to 30m and a wide crown. There are few areas still thickly covered by the kauri forest that once dominated this whole area, but the trees are so huge that they are the most noticeable feature even in woodland where they are present in small numbers. Much of the kauri forest has been cleared for timber and the land converted to agriculture. This region is the southernmost habitat of the kauri and also [[mangrove]]s. There are more endemic species on the offshore islands such as the [[Poor Knights Islands]] and [[Three Kings Islands]], which are home to rare plants including the only species of ''[[Elingamita]]'' and others such as ''[[Pennantia baylisiana]]'' and [[Tecomanthe speciosa|Three Kings vine]].<ref>((WWF ecoregion|id=aa0406|name=Northland temperate kauri forests))</ref>

==Fauna==
The forests are home to a number of rare birds including the endangered [[North Island kokako]] wattlebird, the [[North Island brown kiwi]], and three endemic parrots [[red-crowned parakeet]], the [[New Zealand kaka]] and the [[kākāpō]], the last of which now only survives on the offshore [[Little Barrier Island]]. Invertebrates found in the region include the large [[wētā]] and [[cave wētā]].

==Threats and preservation==
((Unreferenced section|date=October 2021))
This fertile area has long been the most populous part of New Zealand and the original kauri forest has mostly been removed. The logging and gum-tapping that caused this has stopped now and much of the remaining kauri forest is now protected in the Northland region and on the [[Coromandel Peninsula]]. The largest stands of kauri are found in [[Waipoua Forest]] with another large area in [[Trounson Kauri Park]] south of [[Aranga, New Zealand|Aranga]], both areas are on the west coast of Northland.

Wildlife in the region is vulnerable to introduced predators such as the [[Polynesian rat]], [[ferret]]s and [[stoat]]s to the extent that the strongest remaining populations of many plants, birds and reptiles are on offshore islands rather than North Island itself. Some North Island species have been introduced to the offshore as a preservation measure, while other species found there are indigenous to the small islands, including a number of lizards on the [[Mercury Islands]] and the [[Falla's skink]] on the Three Kings Islands.
