1. More or less permanently humid: tropical rain forest, i. e. broadleaf evergreen
forest, usually with many epiphytes. Near its borders, part of this
forest type may include an increasing admixture of deciduous trees and/or
patches of grassland
2. More or less periodically humid: semideciduous forests; deciduous forests
with relatively few epiphytes and/or savannas; or combinations of these types
