Now a universal app - designed for both iPad and iPhone.
Images, distribution maps and text descriptions of over 840 species found throughout the region.

A Group Search that allows you to easily identify a tree species based on the characteristics of the leaves.

No support for iOS 9. Crashes on startup. Impossible to use at all. Avoid buying entirely. The developer is dishonest in still allowing purchases of this app.
