What is mangrove dicot or monocot?

Mangroves are primarily classified as dicots, which are a type of flowering plant (angiOSperm) that typically have two seed leaves or cotyledons. They belong to various families, with the most notable being the Rhizophoraceae family, which includes species like the red mangrove. While monocots are also present in some coastal ecosystems, such as certain types of grasses, mangroves themselves are predominantly dicotyledonous.
