The tropics contain a larger surface area of land than higher latitudes——a fact that is not always evident when we examine commonly used projections of Earth's curved surface, since this tends to exaggerate the areas of land in the higher latitudes——and some biogeographers regard the differences in diversity as a reflection of this effect. (TPO40, 55) tropics n. 热带
projection n. 发射，投射;
exaggerate /?g'z?d??re?t/ v. 夸张，夸大
