Rainforests are mostly located near the Equator, but there are also rainforests in other parts of the world.
the rainforests in the world that are tropical are the rainforests between the tropics of cancer and the tropics of Capricorn (witch are either side of the equator, the hottest part of the world).
Where Are Rainforests Located?Tropical rainforests are located near the equator. Fifty seven percent of all tropical rainforests are found in Latin America. One third of the world's tropical rainforests are in Brazil. Other tropical rainforests are located in Southeast Asia and the Pacific Islands (25% of the world's tropical rainforests) and West Africa (18%).
what percentage of rainforests remaing are located in the neotropics
Amazon, in Brazil, and the rest I don't know.
No, Europe does not have tropical rainforests. No part of Europe is within the tropics. Southern Spain, Sicily, and Crete are the locations farthest south and none extend much south of 35 degrees N latitude.

The largest temperate rainforests are found on the Pacific coast of North America. They stretch from Oregon to Alaska for 1,200 miles. Smaller temperate rainforests can be found on the southeast coast of Chile in South America. There are a few other coastal strips with temperate rainforests, including small areas in the United Kingdom, Norway, Japan, New Zealand, and southern Australia.

Difficult to answer without getting specific, but a general answer might be: Equatorial rainforests are located between the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn (±23.5 deg lat) in continental areas that receive considerable rainfall. That is usually on the side of the incoming prevailing winds.
Tasmania has several rainforests. They are not tropical rainforests, of course, but cool temperate rainforests. Many of these rainforests are not named, but one of them is Russell Falls - Mt Field National Park, Tasmania.
