Description:This manual is a field guide to several of the common trees inhabiting the tropical coastlines of the western Atlantic: the red mangrove, Rhizophora mangle; the black mangrove, Avicennia germinans; the white mangrove, Laguncularia racemosa and the buttonwood Conocarpus erectus. Two other trees, the poisonwood, Metopium toxifera and the manchineel, Hippomane mancinella, are included because of their proximity to the mangroves and their potential toxicity. It is advisable that the reader become familiar with these trees and learn their respective dangers.
