Abstract: | The mangrove formation on the coasts of S. Atlantic is very poor in species (only 6) compared with mangrove in S. and SE. Asia or E. Africa (more than 30). This fact cannot be explained by ecology. It is suggested that the main cause is the historically late origin of the Atlantic due to the continental drift. |
