Detailed Solution
Pneumatophores are negatively geotropic roots that grow vertically upward out of the soil and have pores (lenticels) for gaseous exchange.
They are found in mangrove plants such as Rhizophora and Avicennia, which grow in marshy, waterlogged and saline areas, where the soil is poor in oxygen.
So pneumatophores are found in vegetation of marshy and saline areas.
