The large timber species are sometimes called lapacho or guayacan, but these names are more properly applied to the species '' Handroanthus lapacho'' and ''Handroanthus guayacan'', respectively. The name ''Handroanthus'' was established in 1970,''Handroanthus'' in International Plant Names Index. (see ''External links'' below). but was not generally accepted. In 1992, its species were included in ''Tabebuia'' in the most recent revision of that genus.Alwyn H. Gentry. 1992. "Bignoniaceae: Part II (Tribe Tecomeae)".
