Neotropical Region
The Neotropical Region refers to a biogeographical area that includes South America, Central America, and parts of North America, such as southern Texas and Florida. It is known for its rich biodiversity, featuring vast rainforests like the Amazon, diverse wildlife, and many unique plant and animal species. This region is crucial for global ecology, as it plays a vital role in carbon storage and climate regulation. The Neotropics also face significant threats from deforestation, habitat loss, and climate change, making conservation efforts essential to protect its remarkable ecosystems and the species that inhabit them.
