Wood Identification in Historic Sitez; Inferences for Colonial Trade and Modification of Vegetation on Barbuda

摘要

We report on four wood species identified from five samples taken from timbers in four historic buildings on Barbuda. Two samples were reported previously and three are new identifications. Fortuitous retention of splinter remnants from en of the older samples allowed us to verify the accuracy of Its original identification. None of the species are native to Barbuda.
