Llanos
The gallery forests that grow near rivers have both evergreen forests on the Llanos that flood and semi-deciduous forests in the high Llanos that do not flood. Morichales are forests that flood part of the year.  They have the moriche palm (Mauritia flexuosa). Vegas are evergreen forests that flood part of the year.  They grow near the Orinoco river and its smaller rivers. Trees form a canopy 8 to 20 meters high, and include Inga spp., Combretum frangulifolium, Gustavia augusta, Pterocarpus sp., Etaballia dubia, Spondias mombin, and Copaifera pubiflora.
