Wood anatomy of epacrids
The wood structure of 16 epacrid genera (Styphelioideae, Ericaceae s.l.) is investigated by Lens et al. (pp. 835-856) who discuss the results in terms of molecular phylogenetics. The findings demonstrate that several anatomical features of the wood are consistent at the tribal level. These features also illustrate certain evolutionary trends and help to evaluate the impact of ecological conditions on wood structure.
