<P> In the south - west , the Pacific Plate has a complex but generally convergent boundary with the Indo - Australian Plate , subducting under it north of New Zealand forming the Tonga Trench and the Kermadec Trench . The Alpine Fault marks a transform boundary between the two plates , and further south the Indo - Australian Plate subducts under the Pacific Plate forming the Puysegur Trench . The southern part of Zealandia , which is to the east of this boundary , is the plate 's largest block of continental crust . </P>
