Location 3 - a sandy jungle stream

A sandy jungle stream.

Crypt. striolata - another location for Crypt. striolata. ( aquatic plant)

The lower part of leaf of Crypt. striolata. According to some reference books, some species of the plants in low light jungle can develop anthocyanin (which caused the lower side of the leaf red/ maroon colouration) on the lower part of the leaf, which reflects light energy back through the leaf's photosynthetic tissue. This may help the plant to capture the sun light more efficiently in the dense jungle.
