(i) Tropical environments, unlike temperate ones, are less seasonal, relatively more constant and predictable. Such constant environments Promote niche specialization and lead to a greater species diversity. 

(ii) There is more solar energy available in the tropics, which contributes to higher productivity; this in turn might contribute indirectly to greater diversity.
