What is the difference between the vegetations of the eastern and western Himalayas?
The eastern himalayas 1)Chinese and malayan flora present 2)flora is much thicker than that of the west 3)members of cycadaceae are present and orchids palms and bamboos are common 4)epiphytes and climbers are in great profusion. The western Himalayas 1)European and Siberian flora are present 2)flora is much poorer than that of the east 3)cycadaceae is absent and orchids,palms and bamboos are fewer in number 4)epiphytes and climbers diminish to a considerable extent.
Although both creepers and climbers have weak stems how can we differentiate between the two?
Both creepers and climbers are weak-stemmed plants and, hence cannot grow erect without support. The difference between these two is, creepers spread horizontally along with the soil, whereas climbers take the support of an object for climbing.'
What is the scientific name for epiphytes?

What trees do epiphytes grow on?
what kind of epiphytes are found in the flood planes of north east u.s. forests
What animal eats epiphytes?
animals in the rain forest eat epiphytes like beetles, salamander, and tree frogs
How do you calculate density from surface area per m2 and number of species ie density of epiphytes per m2 of trunk from having the surface area of the trunk and number of epiphytes on it?
To calculate the density of epiphytes per m2 of trunk, you would divide the number of epiphytes by the surface area of the trunk in square meters. This would give you the number of epiphytes per square meter of trunk. Density = Number of epiphytes / Surface area of trunk.
What is the similarities between climbers and creepers?
Climbers and creepers are plants that have weak stems. They must have support in order to grow erect. They are both often used for decorating, or greening, facades.
What is the difference between creepers climbers?
