Greetings! I'm John Axel Orencia a Biology Student, currently on research. I would like to ask on what agency of the Government can help us to verified the Tree Species we studied. We initially successfully identified the trees with the help and advice of experts from botanists and tree experts through the Facebook group of Cos Digital Flora of the Philippines and Philippine Native Tree Enthusiasts through the pictures of the leaves, bark texture, tree standing, and habits we provided. Just a brief background: We study an epiphyte (Dischidia sp.), a plant which habits is to thrives on trees. And part of our objective is to identify the host trees. Can FOI and DENR help us to connect to agency or personnel that has the capacity to help us. Thank you!
