Editing Nypa fruticans (section)

===Introduction:===
''Nypa fruticans'' Wurmb, the mangrove palm, is one of the most
extraordinary palms to be seen in the wild state in Australia, where it
is confined to a few small populations on the north-east and north
coasts. In Queensland, it occurs between the Herbert River (18&deg
10'S) and the Wenlock River (11&#176; 40'S), and in the Northern
Territory on Cobourg Peninsula and Melville Island (10&#176; 50'S). In
Queensland, the range is discontinuous with several wide tracts of
coastline devoid of habitats suitable for Nypa. Outside of Australia,
the palm has a wide distribution throughout coastal and estuarine areas
of south-east and east Asia, extending from Sri Lanka east to the
Solomon Islands and north to the Ryukyu Islands (ca 25&#176; N).
