Detailed Solution

Monsoon forests are also known as tropical deciduous forests.
Tropical deciduous forests are found along regions with moderate rainfall. They shed their leaves in the hot summer. The trees here depend on the monsoon rains to rejuvenate themselves and grow new leaves after summer. These monsoon forests are home to several endangered species like the Asian elephant and tiger. The Deccan Plateau, foothills of the Himalayas, and Central India are home to various plant species like neem, sal, teak, and sandalwood. The deciduous forests can be dry deciduous or moist deciduous, with the former being more prominent. Though the region is not very rich in biodiversity, threatened species are numerous.
