   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Iguassú 

(Iguacú), two contiguous national parks—in Argentina (Iguazú, in Misiones Province, with an area of 55,000 hectares; founded in 1909) and Brazil (Iguacú, in Parana State, with an area of 140,000 hectares; founded in 1939). The main attraction is Iguassii Falls. The parks have humid tropical and subtropical forests with a large variety of trees (as many as 200 types), among which broad-leaved types predominate; there is also araucaria. The puma, jaguar, coyote, ocelot, tapir, alpaca, capybara, sloth, armadillo, and crocodile inhabit the parks.
