Tropical insects are a diverse group of species found in warm, humid regions near the equator. These insects thrive in environments such as rainforests, where they play crucial roles in ecosystems, including pollination and decomposition. Common examples include butterflies, beetles, and ants, which exhibit a wide range of colors, sizes, and behaviors. The high biodiversity in tropical areas supports a vast number of insect species, often leading to unique adaptations. For instance, some tropical insects have developed camouflage to evade predators, while others, like fireflies, use bioluminescence for communication. This rich variety contributes to the ecological balance in their habitats.
