First of all, this is a thread to inform you guys of the confirmed biomes and changes in 1.7.
Mesa: This biome is made up almost entirely out of stained clay, with reds and oranges galore. No trees spawn here. There is a new type of sand called red sand, is the exact same as sand just different texture.
Mega Taiga: 2x2 thick spruce trees spawn here, and are extremely tall. There is a new grass variant called podzol and mossy cobble boulders spawn within the biome. Giant mushrooms can be grown on top of podzol, no matter the light level.
Roofed Forest: The canopy here is thick enough for no light to enter the forest. Mobs spawn here day and night. The trees are made up of spruce wood and oak leaves and giant mushrooms spawn here.
Birch Forest: A forest of birches. The trees can be taller than normal.
Savannah: Another plains type biome, it is very dry here and 2 block tall grass spawns in areas. Savannah and plains are the only biomes that horses can spawn in.
Stone Beach: Spawns when extreme hills touches ocean. Stone is the main block here.
Jungles: Jungles now have melons spawn in the bushes on the jungle floor.
Plains: There are many variants of plains, including sunflower plains.
Oceans: Some oceans can now go as deep as y= 30, with underwater ravines. Oceans are much smaller than before.
Ice Plains Spiked: Ice plains, but has giant ice spikes scattered thorughout the biome. These are made up of packed ice, which cannot melt.
New Blocks: Stained Glass, Stained Glass Panes, Red sand, Podzol, Packed Ice, over 16 new plants and flowers.
Rumor: In one of the most recent screenshots Dinnerbone posted, in the background of the Mesa biome you can see a small cave with a dragon egg within it. Some say this is a hint/leak that the "Halloween Mob" will be the Red Dragon.
