For my research paper, I will be studying on the antibacterial, antioxidant, and antitumor activities of the plant species shown in the photo. However, I am not sure of its full scientific name. It was collected in Pandan, Antique Province, Philippines. It has a local name of "libut" and is known as a medicinal plant for headaches and toothaches. Thank you very much in advance.
Dear Kathleen Trisha Oquendo Dalida, I think it is better to go and be authenticated in the local (national) "herbarium" by experienced botanist where they asked you more information about the plant nature and local name. So that this authentication will also help you for publication of your final work.
Good Luck!
Plant species can be identified from the leaves if it is common enough. Otherwise, flower OR fruit can help in identification. Add other related pictures if possible.
