The Sundarbans, located in the Ganga delta across India and Bangladesh, is the world’s largest mangrove forest. The forest covers over 10,000 sq. km of which about 60 percent is in Bangladesh and the remainder in India. The word Sundarbans comes from ‘Sundari’ which is the local name of the dominant-abundant mangrove species Heritiera fomes. There are two dozen other mangrove species found here.
