Habitat [SEP] Environmental factors
The chief environmental factors affecting the distribution of living organisms are temperature, humidity, climate, soil and light intensity, and the presence or absence of all the requirements that the organism needs to sustain it. Generally speaking, animal communities are reliant on specific types of plant communities. Some plants and animals have habitat requirements which are met in a wide range of locations. The small white butterfly "Pieris rapae" for example is found on all the continents of the world apart from Antarctica. Its larvae feed on a wide range of "Brassicas" and various other plant species, and it thrives in any open location with diverse plant associations.
