Explanation:
Assam is gifted with varieties of flora and fauna including world famous the Great Indian One Horned Rhino, Pigmy Hog, Royal Bengal Tiger, Elephant, Swamp Deer, Gangetic Dolphin, Wild Buffalo, Golden Langur, Hoolock Gibbon, Stump-tailed Macaque and Pig-tailed Macaque, Hispid Hare etc. The birds found in Assam includes Greater Adjutant Stork, White winged wood duck, Bengal Florican, Spotbilled Pelican, Lesser Adjutant Stork, King Vulture, Great Hornbills, Long-billed and Spotted Wren-babblers, Large and Coral-billed Scimitar Babblers, Laughingthrush etc.
Much of the state is covered with dense tropical forests of bamboo and, at higher elevations, evergreens. Many valuable trees like Sal, Agar, Segun, Bon Chom etc., found in these forests which help in economic development of the state.
Erianthus is a tall hard reed that grows in loamy soil that gets flooded during the monsoon, whereas Arundo donax or the Giant Reed is found in areas that constantly remain wet. Monochoria haestefolia, a local species of water hyacinth grows in Assam as the whole valley is scattered with lakes, and hence, wetland. The valley is an important breeding ground for Greater and Lesser Adjutant Storks, both globally threatened species. Bombax or the Silk Cotton trees are seen in abundence and these cottons are used for making pillows. In the eastern part of the valley the gradual emergence of Alluvial Semi-evergreen Forest sometimes results in Tropical Wet Evergreen Forest.
There are also other trees like the beautiful Lagerstroemia flosreginae with its mauve coloured flowers, the Hill Clerodendrum Clerodendrum viscosum and the imposing Betel Palms Areca catechu. Betel Palms are grown all over the place and the Assamese chew it with Pan Piper betel, a climber belonging to the same genus as pepper and lime. Another species of Palm - the Fish-tail Palm Caryota urens is also seen.
The woodland of Kaziranga is divided into three main types - Riparian Fringing Forest, Dillenia Swamp Forest and Assam Alluvial Plains Semi-evergreen Forest.
The Riparian Fringing Forest is comprised of grassland and trees. There were big stands of the Giant Reed growing to a height of more than 13 ft Arundo donax, known as Nal to the Assamese. This plant was used as a reed in the Buffalo Horn played during the Bihu Festival. There were various trees in these forests - mainly Lagerstroemia flosreginae, but also Lagerstroemia parviflora, the Caper Tree Crataeva religiosa.
