The Amazon Forest, which is the largest tropical ecosystem in the world, is inhabited by a very rich and unique variety of flora and fauna. Among the striking flora are large trees such as mahogany, rubber tree, and kapok tree which provide shade for various animal species. The fauna of the Amazon forest includes mammals such as jaguars, tapirs, and various species of monkeys, as well as a variety of colorful birds such as macaws and harpy eagles. Reptiles such as green anacondas and caimans also inhabit the Amazon's rivers, while poisonous frogs and bright butterflies adorn the forest floor. In addition, the rich Amazon river provides habitat for large fish such as arapaima and piranhas. This diversity plays an important role in the balance of forest ecosystems which are vital for life on Earth.
