How are ecological islands different from geographical islands?

Ecological islands is just a terminology used, since it isn't surrounded by water like an actual island, instead, it's something isolated from other things, which is the same thing as an island in a way:

Island (geographical) - Land isolated from bigger "main" land masses by water.

Island (ecological) - Land which contains certain isolated features (habitat, plants, etc.).
