I live in a dry climate area of Colorado and insects are all but extinct where I live, I have not seen a mosquito or ant in a long time, once in a great while I see a fly or moth. Colorado has the 2nd lowest humidity in the US. I would say insects do not adapt well to dry climates.

Where desert can a velvet ants be found?

Most Mutillidae (velvet ants) live in the warmer parts of the planet, and mainly in fairly dry areas. Some of them live in nearly desert areas. They must live in places where they will find insects on which their young can feed and grow. These prey (or host) insects have their own habitats, so the Mutillidae must be adapted to where their particular hosts live, on which their larvae can feed. Most of the hosts are bees or wasps, while other kinds of velvet ants need caterpillars, beetles, cockroaches and a few other types of insects. Whatever the habitat of the host, the velvet ant must be able to live in the same habitat, usually sandy dry areas with suitable plant life.

Why are conifers well adapted to live in cold or dry areas?

Conifers are well adapted to live in cold or dry areas because their needle-shaped leaves reduce water loss due to their smaller surface area, they have a waxy coating on their needles to prevent dehydration, and they are able to thrive in poor soils with limited nutrients. Additionally, their conical shape sheds snow easily and minimizes the surface area exposed to harsh weather conditions.
