Wood structure of Trigonobalanus Excelsa G. Lozano-c., HDZ-C. & Henao (Fagaceae)

General characters: Hardly any differentiation in sapwood and heartwood. The wood greyish middle brown, with a reddish tinge. On the transverse surface growth rings not visible, the wide rays distinct with the naked eye as lighter coloured stripes. The grain straight, the texture rather fine; very hard and difficult to cut across the grain.
