The most abundant type of tree in the Amazon rainforest is the rubber tree, scientifically known as Hevea brasiliensis. This tree thrives in the humid, tropical climate of the region and plays a crucial role in the ecosystem. Rubber trees are not only essential for the production of natural rubber, used in various products, but they also support a rich biodiversity by providing habitat and food for numerous species. Despite their ecological importance, rubber trees have faced challenges from deforestation and the demand for rubber, highlighting the need for sustainable practices in the Amazon.
