Bulnesia Sarmientoi
''Bulnesia sarmientoi'' (recently reclassified as ''Gonopterodendron sarmientoi'') is a tree that inhabits a part of the Gran Chaco area in South America, around the Argentina-Bolivia-Paraguay border. Its wood is often traded as "Paraguay ''lignum vitae''", since it has properties and uses similar to the "true" ''lignum vitae'' trees of genus ''Guaiacum'', which are close relatives. Another trade name is "vera" or "verawood", which may also refer to the even more closely related '' B. arborea''. Another common but rather ambiguous name is ''palo santo'' (Spanish: "holy stick"), which it shares with the species ''Bursera graveolens''. ''Bulnesia sarmientoi'' heartwood is brown, black, and green (varying in color from light olive green to chocolate brown), with streaks. The sapwood is mostly thin and light yellow. The basic specific gravity of this wood is between 0.92 and 1.1 g/cm3. Conservation ''Bulnesia sarmientoi'' was listed as endangered in the 2018 publication of the IU ...

Lignum Vitae
Lignum vitae () is a wood, also called guayacan or guaiacum, and in parts of Europe known as Pockholz or pokhout, from trees of the genus ''Guaiacum''. The trees are indigenous to the Caribbean and the northern coast of South America (e.g: Colombia and Venezuela) and have been an important export crop to Europe since the beginning of the 16th century. The wood was once very important for applications requiring a material with its extraordinary combination of strength, toughness, and density. It is also the national tree of the Bahamas, and the Jamaican national flower. The wood is obtained chiefly from ''Guaiacum officinale'' and ''Guaiacum sanctum'', both small, slow-growing trees. All species of the genus ''Guaiacum'' are now listed in Appendix II of CITES (the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) as potentially endangered species. ''G. sanctum'' is listed as Near Threatened by the IUCN Red List. Demand for the wood has been reduc ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
