Hi
Thank you very much!!! I knew the various regions had names dictated not by temps but rainfall and seasonal,
But I don't know the name of the the subregions . Patanal is one but particularly interested in the area where the Rio Negro joins the Amazon . I thought this was wet dry rainforest but can't find the location under that name . One of the big differences is the height of the forest as well as the continuous moisture rather than seasonal disication as in the site you gave me.
If I could get the names of the various regions ,would go a long way to finding info. "Amazon Basin " is far to general. I suspect there are general names for this type of tropical forest as it also muct exist in Asia ,Africa Australia?? Particularly interested in lowland rainforest epiphytes Thanks again !!! Helps a whole bunch!!!!

There is a textbook Tropical Ecosystems and Ecological Concepts $73.00 (Z) (Read interlibrary loan, perhaps.) that has a "cross reference glossary".

Hi
Thanks, probably at least a hundred times more than I want to know lol. If i could just find names of the various types of forest I could google it for sure.
mind boggling how many different types of them there are!!
maddening when you see a pic when what is ging on in the background is more interesting than the subject lol
Saw some of Lace plants in Madagascar 3 or 4 feet tall with not one mention of the time of the year ,pH of the water effect of the limestone cliffs.
Oh well, Thanks for the suggestion!!! gary

I just thought of two possible site you might not have tried: 1 - Brazil Forestry Department and 2 - Amazon Forest Preservation ( or some derivative).

Here is a link to a summary on rainforests and a cool video

Here is a link that might be useful: general info

Hi
Thanks for that site told me almost all one could want to know except my question lol. Interesting they didn't list temperate rainforests?? Thanks again gary

Maybe this will help or provide a pathway towards ??

Here is a link that might be useful: TROPICAL FOREST BIOMES

Hi
Certainly gives me more specific info. but not my actual question . May be easier to go down there and do my own observing but would require many months to see what drowns or how they survive.lol Interesting the lists of known epiphytes that to my knowlege can't survive submerging?? They obviously figured out a way.
Would be fascinating to watch the forest edges for a year or twenty lol Thanks again gary
