Summary

Description
English: The Sri Lanka montane rain forests are an ecoregion found above 1000 m in the central highlands of Sri Lanka. This region is considered a super-hotspot within the endemism hotspot of global importance. These forests are cooler than lowland forests and therefore they have ideal conditions for growth of cloud forests. There are endemic trees, shrubs, and herbs that can only be found in this ecoregion. Mossy forests usually develop on the saddles of mountains, where moisture by settling clouds is retained.
