Most rattans differ from other palms in having slender stems, 2–5 cm diameter, with long internodes between the leaves also, they are not trees but are vine-like, scrambling through and over other vegetation. Rattans are also superficially similar to bamboo.Unlike bamboo, rattan stems are solid, and most species need structural support and cannot stand on their own
Plant litter, leaf litter or tree litter is dead plant material, such as leaves , bark and twigs, that has fallen to the ground,Litter provides habitat for small animal,fungi and plants, and the material may be used to construct nest. As litter decomposes, nutrients are released to the environment.

A liana is any of various long-stemmed,woody vines that are rooted in the soil at ground level and use trees, as well as other means of vertical support, to climb up to the canopy  in order to get access to well-lit areas of the forest.
Mosses are small, soft plants that are typically 1–10 cm (0.4–4 in) tall, though some species are much larger. They commonly grow close together in clumps or mats in damp or shady locations. They do not have flowers or seeds and their simple leaves cover the thin wiry stems. At certain times mosses produce spores capsules which may appear as beak-like capsules borne aloft on thin stalks.
