Evergreen forest

Coniferous temperate evergreen forests are most frequently dominated by species in the families.

[citation needed] Coniferous temperate evergreen forests are found largely in the temperate mid-latitudes of Siberia, Canada, Australia, Africa, Scandinavia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Amazon and Orinoco basins of South America, Himalayas and western ghats of India and Andaman and the Nicobar Islands.

They occupy about seven percent of the Earth's surface and harbour more than half of the planet's terrestrial plants and animals.

Tropical evergreen forests are dense, multi-layered, and harbour many types of plants and animals.

In some regions, some types of trees shed their leaves at different times of the year.
