Home›Flowering Plants›Habitat›Tropical Dry ForestBiomeTropical Dry ForestAlso Known As Tropical Deciduous ForestTropical Forest BiomesReference and ClassificationThoroughly VerifiedTropical 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.
