🙂 OK don’t worry about this one.
Old World is the world before Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas and New world is after!I wish scientific papers would use language that you didn’t need knowledge of history to decipher

New world = Central and Southern AmericaThat is only for tropics. And i am not sure about australia in the old wolrd. Also europe is in the old world and north america in new world.
