Found in the Tropics (23.5° N - 23.5° S) hence called Tropical. 
Evergreen, means that they do not shed leaves seasonally like Deciduous trees that they are always green. They occupy about seven per cent of the earth's land surface and habours more than half of the world’s plants and animals. They are also Called as “Selvas”

Stratification: See, they are found in the region where the factors accelerating growth in a forest are in abundance, Moisture and Sunshine. 
Rainfall is high and so is the temperature.Take a look at this graph. It is due to the geographical location. It receives max Insolation that results into high rate of evapotranspiration resulting into condensation and eventually precipitation.
