Oak, Maple, Osange, and Zericote work well for smoking but you have to be careful as there are a number of woods that are definitely NOT suitable for smoking such as Poisonwood, so you need to be able to recognize the various species. I haven't tried Mangrove but since it's a protected species...that is, cutting live trees is regulated. Dead wood is not.
