FIRST OF ALL LET US SEE What is Tropical forest and why are they called so ?

Almost all Tropical Forests lie between two imaginary lines North and South of the Equator called the Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn

That is why they are called Tropical forest or Tropical rainforest

That area can be seen in the WORLD MAP.

Trees which are found are ,Mahogany, Ebony and Rosewood. Andaman and Nicobar,North-eastern states and narrow strip of Western Ghats are home of these forests.

Rosewood is used for costly show pieces and for shade. Ebony’s seed is an alternative of coffee and of ornaments also.
