The correct answer is: Tropical Amazonian rain forest in South America
Tropical Amazonian rain forest in South America has the greatest diversity.

Tropical habitats are relatively more constant and less seasonal. Such environments tend to promote niche specialization that gives more diversity. Also, such environments remain undisturbed for millions of years leading to evolution and species diversification.
