To select a specific layer you have to provide the code for the layer. Or alternatively, use the helper of each layer: - eurobis_map_regions_ecoregions() = Marine Ecoregions of the World (MEOW) - eurobis_map_regions_eez() = International Hydrographic Office Sea Areas (IHO) - eurobis_map_regions_iho() = Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZ) - eurobis_map_regions_eez_iho() = Intersections of IHO and EEZ - eurobis_map_regions_reportingareas() = EMODnet Biology Reporting Areas

Marine Regions https://marineregions.org/ is the geographical backbone of EurOBIS. All the regions are included in the Marine Regions Gazetteer. You can see the full list of regions with eurobis_list_regions().

You can find more info about these layers in https://marineregions.org/sources.php

The EMODnet Biology Reporting Areas are not described there. The EMODnet Reporting Areas are modified from the MSDF European seas (https://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/data/europe-seas-1) to fit the purpose of reporting in the EMODnet project.
