Tropical Dry Forest

Also Known As Tropical Deciduous Forest
Tropical Forest Biomes

Tropical dry forest occurs in climates that are warm year-round but carry a long dry season lasting several months, unlike the constantly wet tropical rainforest. Deciduous trees predominate, shedding their leaves during the drought to conserve water, and the biome is less biologically diverse than rainforest but still supports substantial wildlife including monkeys, deer, large cats and parrots.

Facts
Disputed
Annual Precipitation (mm)
1500 1
Bioclimatic definitions disagree on bounds: Murphy and Lugo set 250 to 2000 mm annually, FAO sets 500 to 1500 mm, and the DryFlor network sets up to 1800 mm; Wikipedia's Seasonal Tropical Forest entry gives a typical 1000 to 2500 mm range. This entry uses a representative midpoint rather than asserting one agreed figure.
Typical High Temperature (C)
26 2
Representative low-elevation mean annual high from the Ecuadorian Dry Forests ecoregion (One Earth); this biome family bioclimatic definitions set only a mean annual floor above 17C (PMC bioclimatic paper, already cited), with no single universal high figure given.
Climate
Typical Low Temperature (C)
17 1
This is the biome's defining climatic threshold, the mean annual temperature floor used to distinguish it from cooler forest types, not a literal coldest single reading. No verified figure for temperature-high-c was found this pass; left unfilled rather than invented.

Dry-season dormancy is a defining survival strategy for animals of seasonally dry tropical forests.

WikipediaIntroduction
Quote, Introduction
This tropical forest is classified under the Walter system as (i) tropical climate with high overall rainfall (typically in the 1000-2500 mm range; 39-98 inches) and (ii) having a very distinct wet season with (an often cooler "winter") dry season.
