I think Mathematica goes wrong if asked to plot this very simple region:

Region2 = ImplicitRegion[x < -1 && y < -1/x, {{x, -3, 0}, {y, 0, 1}}]

by means of the command

RegionPlot[Region2, PlotRange -> {{-3, 0}, {0, 1}}]

The output is

enter image description here

while I expected the region below the curve.

Do you know why this happens and how it can be solved?

    $\begingroup$ MMA v11.0.1 also gives a wrong result. Try RegionPlot[x < -1 && y < -1/x, {x, -3, 0}, {y, 0, 1}] $\endgroup$ Feb 26, 2019 at 15:10
