Solution

Littoral forests are coastal forests. They are found on high sandy grounds near the coast. The coastal littoral forests grow high above the sea level and are home to many endangered species of plants and animals. Coastal littoral forests are associated with broadleaf forests. Some of the plant species found here are wild sea shrub, black poisonwood and saltwater palmetto which can survive in saline water. Littoral rainforests are closed forest communities which have closed canopies. Vegetation varies from thickets in windy areas to tall forests in more protected sites.
