(i) Tropical moist evergreen forests,****

(iii) Tropical moist deciduous forests.****

(iv) Littoral and swamp forests.****

(i) Tropical moist evergreen forests:

These are also called tropical rain forests. In India such forests are found in very wet regions receiving more than 250 cm average annual rainfall.

(ii) Tropical moist semi-evergreen forests:

These forests are found along the western coasts, eastern Orissa and upper Assam where annual rainfall is between 200 and 250 cm.

(iii) Tropical moist deciduous forests:

These cover an extensive area of the country receiving sufficiently high rainfall (100 to 200 cm) spread over most of the year. The dry periods are of short duration. Many plants of such forests show leaf-fall in hot summer.

The forests are found along the wet western side of the Deccan plateau, i.e. Mumbai, N-E. Andhra, Gangetic plains and in some Himalayan tracts extending from Punjab in west to Assam valley in the east.

(iv) Littoral and Swamp Forests:

Littoral and Swampy forests include the following types:

(1) Beach forests

(2) Tidal forests or Mangrove forests

(3) Fresh water swamp forests.

Beach Forests:

The beach forests are found all along the sea beaches and river deltas. The soil is sandy having large amount of lime and salts but poor in nitrogen and other mineral nutrients. Ground water is brackish, water table is only a few metres deep and rainfall varies from 75 cm to 500 cm depending upon the area. The temperature is moderate

Tidal or Mangrove forests:

Tidal forests grow near the estuaries or the deltas of rivers, swampy margins of Islands and along sea coasts.
