• Example, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Southern China and Northern Australia.
• Mainly between 10°  and 25°  N and S of the equator

• this to minimise water lost.
• Leaves also have waxy surface to prevent growth of bateria during wet seasons.
• Other plants such as bamboo plant minimise water lose by having narrow leaves.
