The latitudinal diversity gradient refers to the observed pattern that biodiversity tends to be higher in tropical regions near the equator and decreases toward the poles. This phenomenon is attributed to various factors, including climate stability, habitat diversity, and evolutionary history. The warmer temperatures and greater availability of resources in tropical areas support a wider variety of species, while harsher conditions in polar regions limit biodiversity. Overall, this gradient highlights the relationship between latitude and species richness across the globe.

Does NZ have more native trees then Australia?
In terms of forest diversity, Australia has a greater latitudinal range, and will probably have a greater species variety. In addition, the forest in the Cape York Peninsula in the sub-tropics,will have a great diversity, as is typical for tropical forest. These are not species numbers, but the general direction should be sound. Sorry I can't do better.
