\nTropical dry deciduous forests cover the largest area in India.
\n<\/section>\n
\nTropical dry deciduous forests are found in vast areas of the Indian subcontinent where rainfall is moderate (70-100 cm annually), and they shed their leaves during the dry season. This type of forest is widespread across the central parts of India.
\n<\/section>\n
\nTropical moist deciduous forests require higher rainfall (100-200 cm) and are also significant but cover a smaller area than dry deciduous forests. Tropical evergreen forests are limited to high rainfall regions (over 200 cm), such as parts of the Western Ghats and Northeast India. Himalayan moist temperate forests are specific to the Himalayan region.
