Ba- kauan (Rhizophora spp.) ranks next to tangal, while busain (Bruguiera conjugata) and langarai (Bruguiera parviflora) are third and fourth, respectively. The other two species present occur in small quantities. In this table the largest percentage of volume is the 15-centimeter diameter class. In both Tables III and IV the number of individuals is greatest in the smallest dia- meter class and decreases in the large
