Comprehensive descriptions are given of 150 important timber species. These major timbers comprise mostly wild species, but also several cultivated or partly domesticated species. The accounts are presented in a detailed format and illustrated with a line drawing and a distribution map. In addition, accounts of 164 timbers of minor importance are given. Because information on these species is often scanty, these accounts are in a simplified format and usually do not include a drawing. For another 379 species the information was too scarce to justify an individual treatment and they have only been mentioned in the accounts of related species.
