These forests occur in year-round warm climates, where a couple of hundred centimeters of rain per year is not uncommon. Apart from that, they deal with long dry seasons of several months which vary with geographic location. These seasonal droughts have great impact on all things living in the forest. These forests mostly are north and south of the equator rain forest belt, south or north of the subtropical deserts, in two bands, one between 10° and 20°N latitude and the other between 20° and 30°S latitudea and are found in in eastern Bolivia and central Brazil, southern Mexico, southeastern Africa, the Lesser Sundas, central India, Indochina, Madagascar, New Caledonia, the Caribbean, valleys of the northern Andes, and along the coasts of Ecuador and Peru.
