Abstract

The gross macroscopic and microscopic wood structure of Acanthosyris spinescens (Mart. et Eichl.) Gris. (Santalaceae) are described. Quantitative data from the different cellular types and tissues, as well as photomicrographs of the wood, are furnished. The wood structure is checked with the anatomical literature of the genus Acanthosyris and Santalaceae. The interesting radial structure of this wood, composed mostly by multi-seriate rays the dissect from large to smaller units. forming aggregate rays and sheath cells, is analysed with respect to its ontogeny.
