Description Tigree tree.
A large and tall tree that lives in symbiosis with a fast growing mushroom. Both native to the swamps of Moita.
The tree itself lack strong roots and can easily be tipped over, However the fungi in it creates a elaborate rooting system for it. This keeping the tree standing.
Without the fungi the tree wouldnt survive.

Walking barnacle.
Native to Muthuruh. Grows randomly here and there.
It have gotten its name due to its appearance.
The growths on its top, even though still wood, are very hard. They collect rain. (what little there is in Muthuruh)
The water is stored in fruit like bulbs on its underside.
The "fruits" are hard to open but have been lifesavers to many wanderers.

They look cool. I recently took a trip to Yucatan, where we took a tour into a mangrove.

Very. It was at a town called Celestun, just west of MΓ©rida.
There's a tour that takes you to a small island with a fresh water pond you can swim in.
