USA marginally ahead of China for me and then India is a clear third. Could go many ways after that, France, the UK, Peru, Colombia, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Australia, among several other options.
Also, I need to say this, *********r biodiversity Colombia, no one cares about your 2000 species of parakeets and mutated frogs, and 30000 species of bushes each with it's own species of aphid, it's all about the big ones. If biodiversity were actually a part of this India would reign supreme, they've got everything, elephants, rhinos, lions, tigers, bears (oh my), cheetahs, leopards, crocodiles, wolves, a ton of other ungulates and has plenty of primates, snakes, colorful birds and your other assorted tropical species as well.
Even America has cooler animals than Colombia, thank you Bergmann's rule. Also we have great trees, love our big trees.

I smell a ghost profile from another butthurt Argentine.
Ahhh well is what it is. Andes, Amazon, Caribbean, Pacific, Tropical Savannah, snow peaks to broadleaf forests to bayou to desert all within a 100 mile radius. It obviously hurts some people sometimes for reasons unknown.
Pablo, well according to the Holdridge system a tropical rainforest needs to be above 24C and more than 8000 mm of rain annually.
There are very few places in the world that get that amount of rain and that I know of only Colombia, Cameroon and Equatorial guinea have places with that combination of temperature and rainfall
Even though the largest rainforest lies primarily in Brazil?

nowhere in the amazon gets more than 8000 mm of rain to be classified as "Tropical rain forest". most of that jungle falls into the tropical moist forest "2000 to 4000 mm of rain and above 24C" and tropical wet forest "4000 to 8000 mm of rain and above 24Chttp:///edepot.wur.nl/480005
I personally don't like making a list of who is more diverse than who. There are many factors to be taken into account if we mix all the elements "climate, vegetation, terrain, location"
For intance you take a desert, but a desert can be a lot of different landscapes:
1. coastal tropical sand desert with flat terrain
2. inland temperate rock desert with mountain terrain.
America is a continent, not a country, that goes from Canada to Chile. As for "Cooler" animals, well that depends each person's view of what's cool, but sheer number of species does not depend on someone's opinión.

I know you are alluding to our previous discussions about this topic. No idea about that poster –s/he doesn’t look like Argentine, not important at all-, but you should tone down with this cringy chauvinism.
All the topics in which there are comparisons among places and countries you come up with the same ridiculous stuff about Colombia, going for the WOWs. The most diverse geography in the world! The most climatic diversity in the world! The most spectacular fauna! The largest biodiversity! The best, most varied and most amazing musical rhythms! The most perfect Spanish! The most amount of Spanish accents! Always accompanied by a wall of pics and youtube links…
Do you work for the Colombian tourism office? It looks like a terrible strategy.
Colombia does provide some very interesting insights in all of these topics, but it’s hardly one of a kind, or even special at all on most of them. All in all, it is a beautiful country, but you will have to deal with the fact that it’s not different from any other countries. It will stand out in some things, not so much in others.

America is not a continent. North America is a continent. As is South America. But the United States of America is the only country on either continent that has "America" in its name, so everyone knows what is meant when people refer to "America."

Yeah, we should work on changing that. We straight up high jacked that demonym. We are ...Statesmen

It is both. Words can have multiple meanings, and residents of the U.S. call themselves Americans. Don't be so stuck up about it.
