Biome/ID

Each type of biome has its own Resource Location, shown in the following tables.

Before 1.13 biomes used to have a numerical ID. These can be seen in this page: Biome/IDs before 1.13

In versions after 1.13 biomes use a numerical ID which is determined by the alphabetical ordering of their resource locations.^[verify] This information is however only used by the game internals and is not included below.
