Both tropical rainforest and tropical deciduous forest occur in the tropics - the band around the equator bounded by the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn. Both forest types feature trees and other plants with large broad leaves which expedite photosynthesis.
The difference between the two tropical forest types is that the deciduous forest trees and shrubs drop their leaves during the 6–8 weeks or more of the annual summer dry season in order to reduce evaporative losses. (Note that in contrast, temperate deciduous forests drop leaves in order to survive the cold winter season).
Tropical rainforests grow in regions that have consistently heavy rainfall year round (no discernible dry season.) These forests are evergreen, meaning trees and shrubs retain their broad leaves year round. Leaves are shed when aged, but not all at once like deciduous trees, and are regrown continuously.
