Zealandia

Zealandia (dalam bahasa Māori: Te Riu-a-Māuicode: mi is deprecated "Lembah/Badan Perahu Māui")^[1] atau Tasmantis^[2]^[3] adalah suatu daratan besar berupa benua^[4] yang separa tenggelam berikutan pemisahan kerak benua dari Gondwana antara 83–79 juta tahun yang lalu.^[5] Sebahagian besar daratan ini (94%) tenggelam di bawah Lautan Pasifik^[6] manakala yang selebihnya membentuk pulau-pulau New Zealand yang terbesar diikuti oleh Nouvelle-Caledonie.

Kefahaman mengenai daratan ini mula diusulkan oleh saintis Amerika Syarikat Bruce Luyendyk pada tahun 1995, ^[7] pengimejan satelit yang berikutan menunjukkan daratan diusulkan ini kelihatan hampir seukuran Australia. ^[8] Kajian pada tahun 2021 menunjukkan bahawa daratan tua ini berusia 1 bilion tahun yakni kira-kira dua kali lebih awal daripada yang difikirkan oleh ahli geologi sebelumnya. ^[9]
