-These forests are restricted to heavy rainfall areas of the Western Ghats and the island groups of Lakshadweep, Andaman and Nicobar, upper parts of Assam and Tamil Nadu coast.
-They are at their best in areas having more than 200 cm of rainfall with a short dry season.
-The trees reach great heights up to 60 metres or even above.
-Since the region is warm and wet throughout the year, it has a luxuriant vegetation of all kinds — trees, shrubs and creepers giving it a multilayered structure.
-There is no definite time for trees to shed their leaves. As such, these forests appear green all the year round.
