Explanation:
Coniferous forests have trees with needle-shaped leaves, so that they can withstand the heavy snowfall. These forests are mainly found in North America and northern Eurasia.
The main trees in the coniferous forests are firs, pine, spruce and larch. As these forests are always moist, moss, lichen and liverwort covers the forest floor.
Flies, mosquitoes and other insects are commonly found here. Snakes and frogs are also present. Other inhabitants include birds like woodpeckers, kinglets, hawks, owls, shrews, squirrels, moose, wolves and reindeer.
