Keanekaragaman hayati terbesar dite

Keanekaragaman hayati terbesar ditemukan di hutan-hutan tropika. Walaupun daerah tropika hanya mencakup 7% dari luas bumi, tapi lebih dari separuh spesies dunia dapat ditemukan di sini (Whitmore 1990). Perkiraan ini berdasarkan perhitungan sementara pada serangga dan antropoda lainnya, sebagai kelompok-kelornpok yang notabene dianggap paling beragam di dunia. Berdasar perkiraan sementara (mungkin juga disebut educated guess atau prakiraan empirik), di hutan tropika terdapat antara 5 juta sampai dengan 30 juta spesies hidup yang masih perlu dikenali oleh ilmu pengetahuan selama ini (May 1992). Jika 30 juta merupakan perkiraan yang tepat, berarti serangga yang ditemukan di hutan tropika mencakup lebih dari 90% dari spesies yang ada di dunia.
Informasi mengenai kelompok lain, seperti tumbuh-tumbuhan dan burung lebih akurat dibandingkan serangga dan artropoda. Sekitar 40% spesies tumbuhan berbunga dunia ditemukan di hutan tropika, sedangkan 30% spesies burung bergantung kepada hutan tropika (Diamond 1985).

The greatest diversity is found in tropical forests. Although tropical areas cover only 7% of the Earth's vast, but more than half the world's species can be found here (Whitmore 1990). These estimates are based on calculations while on insects and other arthropods, as kelornpok that in fact considered to be the most diverse in the world. Based on an estimate of temporary (may also be called educated guess or empirical forecast), in the rainforest there are between 5 million to 30 million species of life that still need to be known by science during this time (May 1992). If 30 million is an appropriate estimate, meaning an insect found in a tropical forest covers more than 90% of the species that exist in the world. Information on other groups, such as the vegetation and the birds more accurately than insects and arthropods. About 40% of the world species of flowering plants found in the rainforest, while 30% of bird species depend on tropical forests (Diamond 1985).

Greatest biodiversity is found in tropical forests. Despite tropical region covers only 7% of the area of the earth, but more than half the world's species can be found here (Whitmore 1990). This estimate is based on a calculation while in insects and other arthropods, as a group-kelornpok which incidentally is considered the most diverse in the world. Based on provisional estimates (perhaps also called educated guess or forecasts, empirical), in tropical forests, there are between 5 million to 30 million species of life that still needs to be recognized by science during this time (May 1992). If 30 million is an appropriate estimate, meaning insects found in tropical forests cover more than 90% of all species in the world.
Information on other groups, such as plants and birds is more accurate than the insects and arthropods. About 40% of the world's flowering plant species are found in tropical forests, while 30% of bird species depend on tropical forests (Diamond 1985).
