Dark Forest

A dark forest or roofed forest is a forested biome with dense leaf canopies that block sunlight, allowing hostile mobs to spawn and hide from the sun during daytime. Dark forests are one of the two biomes that woodland mansions can generate in.

Dark forests generate in areas with medium temperature and very high humidity values and are usually bordered by birch forests, but they can also border jungles and bamboo jungles. Dark forests border old growth taigas but not regular taigas.

They can generate at any type of terrain, near swamps and windswept biomes, in flatland, bordering oceans with beaches or cliffs, near plateaus and fjords, or high mountain valleys. Plateaus and mountain slopes in dark forests are replaced by the pale garden variant.
