Islands of the south Pacific taken together, sometimes including Australasia (7)

I believe the answer is:

oceania

(Other definitions for oceania that I've seen before include "Pacific island region" , "Pacific Ocean area" , "Pacific islands region" , "The Pacific islands taken together" , "part of the Pacific" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
