Montane forests are mountain forests or a complete ecosystem that is found on mountains only.

Its features are as follows:-

1. Evergreen type of vegetation is prevalent in montane forest. Commonly pine, deodar, cidar trees are found.

2. Grasslands form about 80 per cent of such forests.

3. They are very affected by the existing climatic conditions. With increase in elevation, the temperature falls down gradually. So, it is more cold at the top. So, a corresponding change in natural vegetation is also observed at each level

4. Generally, they are conical in shape so that it is easy for the snow to slide down.

5. Fauna includes wild boar, spotted deer, stag, sloth bear, etc.

eg. The Alps, Carpathians in Europe;
The Cascade Range in North America;
The Himalayas in India.

hope it helps
