This article is about an older version of DF.

Biome tokens are used to indicate environments for creatures and trees.

All objects that use biome tokens can take multiple entries, so they can be found in many different locations.

The "ANY_LAND" biome set can only be used with creatures, while "ANY_TEMPERATE_BROADLEAF" and "ANY_TROPICAL_BROADLEAF" can only be used with trees.

Unlike in later versions, these must be specified as [BIOME_token_name] instead of [BIOME:token_name].
