USDA World Timbers Common Names Database
http://www2.fpl.fs.fed.us/CommNames2000.html
A
Database of Common Names for World Timbers by Regis B. Miller, USDA Forest
Service, Forest Products Laboratory, Madison, Wisconsin, USA and J. Ilic,
CSIRO, Clayton, Australia
The information in this comprehensive database will be of great value to
users of wood and wood products and others who rely on scientific names as a
key to reliable information on wood properties. The database contains
approximately 30,000 unique botanical names and 130,000 common names
including the corresponding botanical family name, synonyms, geographic
origin, and links to technical data sheets if one is available. Many
species, particularly those from the tropical countries are known by several
local or common names and some unrelated species also share the same common
name. The database will help to resolve such problems and provide more
reliable information on the woods.
