Xylarium

A plant anatomist receiving such samples can remove pickled wood and bark for anatomical study, then dry the remaining portions for inclusion in a xylarium.

The genus [Dalechampia] is poorly represented in xylaria and its wood is little known.

Samples were identified according to the standards of the International Association of Wood Anatomists (AWA) by consulting xylariums, glass plate archives, bibliographies and databases.
