Plants!

Since plants in this ecosystem are dependent of sunlight, they grow quick, tall, and absorb water fast with their short roots. Plants in this area have high canopies with epiphytes, plants living off of other plants. Here are a few plant species that can be found in the Indo-Malaysian rainforest:

This is the Bengal bamboo (Bambusa Tulda). It has short roots so it can absorb water quickly. 

 This is the Durian Tree (durio Zibethinus). It has a tall canopy like most of the rain forest trees.

This is the Jambu (Syzygium aqueum). It grows shorter than other plants but it is a source of food for many animals.
