- Coniferous wood with resin canals. Growth ring
boundaries distinct, transition from earlywood to latewood mostly
gradual, axial and radial resin canals with thin-walled epithelial cells,
latewood tracheids thin to thick walled, bordered pits on radial
walls of tracheids 1-2(-3) seriate, crassulae common, rays heterocellular,
uniseriate, partly biseriate, uniseriate rays up to 27 cells high,
fusiform rays up to 30 seriate high. Axial parenchyma occasionally
present. Ray tracheids 2-3 rows, cell walls of ray tracheids smooth.
Cross-field pitting pinoid, 1-2(-6) pits per cross-field, horizontal
and end walls of ray parenchyma cells smooth and slightly nodular,
horizontal walls occasionally pitted, indentures not observed.
