holarcticadj.

/həʊˈlɑːktɪk/

Etymology: < Greek ὅλος whole (holo- comb. form) + Arctic adj. and n.

In the geographical distribution of animals: Of or pertaining to the entire northern or arctic region, as the holarctic region, or holarctic family of birds. Mr. P. Sclater divided the surface of the globe into six great zoological regions, two of which, the Palæarctic and Nearctic, comprised the Old and the New World respectively north of the Tropic of Cancer (nearly). It has since been proposed to unite these into one region, to which Prof. A. Newton has applied the term Holarctic. It corresponds essentially to Huxley's Arctogæal.
