A forest dominated by trees with needle-like leaves is called a coniferous forest.

Here's why:

* Coniferous refers to trees that bear cones, which is a characteristic of trees with needle-like leaves.

* These forests are often found in colder climates, where the needle-like leaves help the trees survive the harsh winter conditions.

Some examples of coniferous trees are:

* Pines

* Spruces

* Firs

* Cedars

* Yews
