Canopy
25 -45 m with scattered deciduous trees. Many canopy trees are semi-evergreen...
Epiphytes are rare. Ground ferns and gingers are not prominent but
there is a well developed shrub layer. Growing on rich basalt soils
where there are signs of moisture stress in the dry season, the bark
types are often fissured, flaky or scaly."
