Plant and Insect Identification

The NDSU Plant Diagnostic Lab provide plant and insect identification to the public. Our lab accepts both physical samples and digital images of plants/weeds and insects. Please note that we do not process samples collected from animal and human body parts.

We are most likely to be successful in identifying plant and insect samples collected from North Dakota and the Red River Valley region. If you are residing out of state, please contact your local Extension office or a diagnostic lab/clinic within your state/region for assistance.
