Abstract
The authors would like to correct the scientific names on some of the tree species listed in this paper [1], doi:10.3390/f5123327, website: http://www.mdpi.com/1999-4907/5/12/3327. After publication we discovered that some of the vernacular names used by some communities were in fact a different species than initially anticipated. Therefore, although the vernacular is correct, the scientific name should be corrected. This confusion was due to the variety of vernacular names used for each species, which depend mostly on the ethnic group. The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused to the readers by these changes.[...]
