Sundari trees are found in which type of forests in India?

Question

Accepted Answer

Sundari trees (Heritiera fomes) are characteristic species of the Sundarbans. Step-by-step reasoning:

1. Sundari is a mangrove species adapted to saline, waterlogged, estuarine conditions found in tidal regions.  
2. The Sundarbans (where Sundari predominates) are the largest mangrove forest in India and are composed of tidal, salt-tolerant vegetation.  
3. Tropical deciduous forests, thorn forests and scrubs, and tropical evergreen forests have very different ecological conditions (non-tidal, less saline) and do not support Sundari as a typical species.

Therefore Sundari trees are found in mangrove forests in India.
