Mangrove;
Any of several unrelated tropical or subtropical trees, all sharing similar structure and biology, growing on coastal and estuarine mud-flats.
Mangrove are woody trees or shrubs that grow in coastal habitats or mangal (Hogarth, 1999), for which the term mangrove swamp also would apply. Mangrove plants occupy shallow water and intertidal zones in tropical and subtropical coastal regions, usually where protected from direct wave action, and thus characterized by muddy or fine sediment substrata.
