- Diagnosis
- Growth ring boundaries distinct. Wood ring-porous with 2–3 rows of vessels in earlywood. Earlywood vessels solitary or in radial multiples; latewood vessels arranged in tangential bands. Mean vessel tangential diameter 100–200 µm, ≥200 µm in earlywood, ≤50 µm in latewood. Axial parenchyma dif
fuse, vasicentric, banded, confluent. Rays in two distinct sizes, generally larger rays 4–8-seriate, rarely 1–2-seriate rays present. Ray width up to 8 cells, height up to 61 cells. Storied structure common in axial parenchyma. Intervessel pits alternate, perforation plates simple. All rays procumbent, body ray cells procumbent with one row of upright and/or square marginal cells. Helical thickening common in latewood vessels.
