The Atlantic moistforests , also known as the Atlantic coastal forests , are tropical and subtropicalmoistbroadleafforeststropicalmoist evergreen forests , part of the Atlantic Forests complex of eastern Brazil . The Atlantic moistforests mostly lie within 80  km of the Atlantic Ocean Atlantic coast. Restinga s, coastal forests which grow on stabilized dunes, and mangroves, generally lie immediately along the coast. Inland from the moistforests are the drier Atlantic semi deciduous forests , whose trees often drop their leaves during the dry season. The Atlantic moistforests stretch from Pernambuco state in the Northeast Region, Brazil northeast to Rio Grande do Sul state in the Southern Region, Brazil south . The World Wildlife Fund identifies three distinct ecoregion s. The Pernambuco coastal forests occupy the coastal plain of Pernambuco and Alagoas states. The Bahia coastal forests occupy coastal Bahia and Esp rito Santo states. The Serra do Mar coastal forests extend along coastal Rio de Janeiro state Rio de Janeiro , S o Paulo state S o Paulo , Paran state Paran , Santa Catarina State Santa Catarina , and Rio Grande do Sul states. The Atlantic moistforests have a four tiered structure.
