Many trees can be most easily identified from their distinctively shaped and coloured fruit that litters the forest floor at certain times of the year. Here are a few to start on. Collecting different fruits can be just as addictive as beach combing. There is even a massive and beautifully illustrated book dedicated to identifying rainforest fruits and seeds. Remember only a few fruits are edible, so do not be tempted to taste test unless you have made a certain identification.
