The names of the new species have still not been classified scientifically. According to forest engineers Renato Uchoa and Luís Carlos, 400 new plant species were collected during the surney of the area. The plants are being classified by botanists at the National Institute of Amazonian Research in Manaus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
