      Mahogany trees


      There are two African mahogany trees near the village of Banana (part of the settlement Montanha), standing at the bottom of the Ribeira Montanha valley, 400 m above sea level. The trees were identified as an Important Bird Area (IBA) by BirdLife International because they support a colony of purple herons or Bourne's herons.
