Species Search Instructions


Follow the simple instructions below to make the most of Species Search.

To perform a search of a wood species, simply enter all or part of the name in the Species field, in the form of a partial word or phrase. References that include the word(s) entered will be displayed on the screen. If more than 40 references meet your criteria, they will be  displayed on additional pages. The numerical value displayed with some species indicates its location in the corresponding source.

Helpful Hint: Entering 'oak' catches several species of Red Oak as well as Southern Oak, Tulip Oak, Spanish Oak and about another 200 different types of Oak. Entering more keywords can narrow the search considerably. For instance, 'Black Oak' returns only four different species.

Wood Search is made possible through the efforts of its author, Dave Bilger of B&B Rare Woods.
