etymology :: tagal: How is specific epithet tagal (in context of Ceriops tagal) derived ?
It is not found to be a vernacular name in any language of regions with mangroves.
Any connection with OR named for the Tagal, the Malayan race of south east Asia ?

– Just found that the plant is known by the name tangal in Tagalog in the Philippines.
