Peru actually has 7 ecorregions (In a future if we expand to the north we will get more):

* Cold Sea: Since the Chile center to ~~Piura~~. The temperature is 13º in winter and 15º in summer. It is an area where there is a great variety of vegetables and animals, thanks to the cold water ~~current~~, which is called the Peruvian or Humboldt ~~Current~~.

* Cold Sea: Since the Chile center to Inca. The temperature is 13º in winter and 15º in summer. It is an area where there is a great variety of vegetables and animals, thanks to the cold water Stream, which is called the Peruvian or Humboldt Stream.

* Pacific Desert: Since 5º south latitude (Piura) until 27º south latitude (North of Chile) in the coast. Its average width is 20 km. It is one of the driest desert areas in the world.

*Highland Steppes: Located between 1,000 and 3,800 meters above sea level, this area extends from Inca south to the north of Chile.

*Puna Grasslands: It is the highest area of the Andes Mountains. It is located between 3,800 meters above sea level and 5,200 meters above sea level. The climatic contrast is total, during the day it usually reaches 30 C, due to its location and radiation, while at night the temperature drops to 6 C. Above the 5200 are the glaciers.

*High Jungle: It extends along the eastern flank of the Andes Mountains, from the border with Ecuador to the border with Bolivia, between 500 and 3,500 meters.

*Low Jungle: With an area of 60 million hectares, it is the largest region in Peru, also known as the Amazonian tropical forest. It is located below 800 m., To the east of the Andes Mountains. 42% of the tropical forests are located in this place and 5 of the plants and animals.

*Palm Tree Savannas: It is characterized by excess water, by presenting four plant formations: the gallery forest, the pajonal of the pampas, the groves of the hills and the adjacent forests; and because there are species that do not exist elsewhere.
