Emergent
Emergent trees are the very tallest trees in the rainforest. They are the ones "emerging" from the canopy, and can be as tall as 60 metres or more, towering over the canopy of the rainforest. Mostly birds and insects live there.
The trees in the emergent layers can range from heights 35 to 50 meters.

Tobago wetlands would be classified as swamps or marhses depending on the presence of trees or not. Marshes are dominated by sedges and grasses without the presence of emergent trees. A swamp would be populated by dead or living emergent trees.
No. They live in the canopy or lower canopy. One species that does live in the higher emergent trees is the colobos monkey.
