- Low Woodlands: The most common variant. Only oak trees and at a higher density than the normal forest biome.
- Woodlands Hills: Less common. Like the low woodlands but hillier.
- High Woodlands: About as common as Woodlands Hills. Trees are less dense and the base height is higher. It is also slightly less sloped (though this is not conspicuous).
- High Inhabited Woodlands: One of the least common two. Slightly lower base height (not noticeably) and villages can spawn.
- Low Spruce Woodlands: Another of the least common two, this biome is like the low woodlands, but the temperature is slightly lower and all of the trees are the minecraft spruce tree (uses "WorldGenTaiga2")

 

Post alpha 1.2 variants:

- Low Tall Woodlands: Variant of Low Woodlands characterised by the abundance of big oak trees. Wolves can spawn here.

Variants added in a1.1

- Northern Alps: The normal "alps" biome. Higher than extreme hills, and occasionally has rock instead of deep snow at the top. No trees spawn here. The only mobs that can spawn are skeletons.

 

Variants before a1.1

- Northern Snow Alps: (Just "Northern Alps" before a1.1) Like the Northern Alps, but with a snow layer on top.

     a1.1 tweaks: has boulders of stone that spawn.
- Northern Snow Subalpine Alps. Lower biome which can also generate trees. In addition to skeletons, wolves and sheep can spawn here.
- Northern Subalpine Alps. Like Northern Snow Subalpine Alps but slightly hillier and slightly lower, and no snow layer will spawn here.

- Wasteland Flats: Flat biome covered in dead soil with occasional swamp trees. No peaceful mobs spawn here.
- Wasteland Flats Slopes: Hillier version of Wasteland Flats (yep, the name is ironic)
- Wasteland Flats Trees: Like Wasteland Flats, but deadbush generate and there is an increased number of swamp trees. Pigs can sometimes spawn here.
- Wasteland Flats Oasis: Completely different to the regular wasteland flats: Made of grass, wet soil, and water. Palm trees and "Oasis Trees" spawn here in addition to small shrubs and dirt mounds. Animals spawn here as normal.

- Lowlands: Lush grassland down low to the ground. Hillier than a plains biome. No trees will naturally generate here.

- Highlands: Lush high grassland, much flatter than the lowlands. Trees do not naturally occur here.

- Moorlands: Damp high grassland, similar to the highlands. Bushes and small rocks will generate here, as well as tulips and orchids.

After public alpha 1.3:

- Lowlands Chapparal: Drier, hillier grassland populated with tall flowers and leafy shrubs.

- Southern Alps: High snow-covered hilly mountains, with rock underneath. Only spiders and strays spawn here.

- Extreme Southern Alps: Like the regular "Southern Alps" biome, but hillier.

- Southern Alps Subalpine: High, flat, cool, and grassy landscape. Bushes generate here.

- White Woods: Cold and snowy coniferous woodland with occasional oaks and bushes.

- White Oaks: Cold and snowy oaken woodland with some low bushes.

- White Woods Hills: Hillier White Woods.

- White Oaks Hills: Hillier White Oaks.

Snow Rocks: Snowy plains littered with small and large rocks.

Snow Rocks Mountains: Hilly Snow Rocks.

Snow Rocks Plateau: Like the Snow Rocks biome, but on a plateau.

Sand Dunes: Hilly sand-covered land with a hot climate.

Red Sand Dunes: Like the Sand Dunes, but with red sand.

Sand Dunes M: Extreme Mountainous hot sand-covered land.

Sand Dunes Oasis: Low lying oasis with an abundancy of palm trees.

Grassy Fen: Low and slightly hilly wetland. No trees generate here and lilypads naturally occur. Ground is covered in grass and some wet soil.

[1.3.2+] Grassy Marshland: Almost-Flat wetland covered in grass and wet soil with no trees and some lilypads.

Bush: Low flat-ish and dense forest based off of New Zealand's forests, with "Manuka" based trees and low shrubs. Ferns sometimes appear here.

Bushland Hills: Hilly, dense forest based off of New Zealand's forests similar to the regular "Bush"

Forested Canyon Plateau: Flat, plateau variation of "Bush"

Forested Canyon Plateau M: Hillier plateau variation of "Bush"

Forested Canyon Pillars: Mostly low-lying dense bushland of shrubs and "Manuka" on grass and podzol with pillars of rock coming out of the ground.

Brushlands: Low lying plains littered with scrub/brush-like bushes

Brushlands Hills: Hilly variant of the Brushlands

Dense Brushlands: Variant of Brushlands with an increased density of brush bushes

Hot Brushlands: Variant of Brushlands found in a desert environment
