This tree is fascinating, using above ground roots called pneumatophores through which oxygen enters into its underground tissues. What is this type of tree?

From NWF.org: "Red mangroves, which are broad-leaved evergreen trees, are easily identified by their remarkable aboveground prop roots that transport air to their waterlogged below-ground roots. In the tropics, red mangroves grow to more than 80 feet in height."
