A large ecosystem on the land having distinct type of vegetation and animal life is called biome. In general, biomes are divided into the following categories: 

1. Forests: It consists of evergreen forests, deciduous forests, and coniferous forests. 

2. Grasslands: Savana grasslands. 

3. Alpine/Tundra vegetation. 

4. Desert vegetation. 

Though the animals are also included in the biomes but they are not counted in the classification of biomes.
