The Faroe Islands boreal grasslands ecoregion (WWF ID: PA0807) covers all of the territory of the Faroe Islands, an archipelago of 18 islands in the North Atlantic, roughly equidistant between Scotland, Norway, and Iceland.[1][2][3][4] The ground cover is mostly grassland and dwarf shrub heath (about 80% of the land), the remainder is bare ground or sparse vegetation. There are no forests on the islands.[1]
