By entering a "search string" of at least 4 letters (no numeric or sign character) in the form above, a list of PLANT SPECIES ' local and scientific names containing your string, and followed by its family code, will be retrieved from our server and returned to you.

This window is left blank if no record is found with your search string.

While the local names are of cultural significance, the scientific and family names are very important data for any specialist asked to gather further information about the species, such as description, bibliographical references, and possibly pictures.
