Forensics experts from Australia along with other countries will assist in the identification of the victims of AirAsia flight 8501.
A representative from the Federal Government said, "Australian agencies ... remain in ongoing direct contact with their Indonesian counterparts to offer support for the Indonesian response to the loss of flight QZ8501."
The representative added, "The Australian Transport Safety Bureau (ATSB) has agreed to an Indonesian request to provide a flight recorder specialist when needed."
According to Indonesian officials, 260 doctors, local and foreign, are working to identify the remains of 37 recovered bodies, using fingerprints, dental records and DNA bone records.
As of Monday, officials reported that an Indonesian patrol vessel has located what was believed to be the tail of the plane, where the black box and the flight data recorders are located.
Yayan Sofyan, captain of the patrol boat told media on Monday, "We found what has a high probability of being the tail of the plane."
"I am not saying it's the tail yet," said Indonesia's search and rescue agency head, Fransiskus Bambang Soelistyo.
He added, "That is suspected. Now we are trying to confirm it."
Flight QZ8501 crashed 42 minutes after departing from Surabaya to Singapore with 162 passengers. It was previously reported that most of the passengers may be in the body of the plane.
