An asterisk afterthe geographical origin indicates that the timber is commercially available from plantation growth elsewhere.2.5 The standard nameIn some instances, the names of well known timbers such as 'oak', 'cedar' or 'pine' with a geographical or otherqualification, are used for timbers that have no botanical relationship with those properly so named. Names of thiskind are distinguished by quotation marks to indicate that they are not true oaks, cedars or pines.These names have become firmly established by long use (e.g. 'Tasmanian oak', 'Port Orford cedar', 'Parana pine')and where there is no suitable alternative the established name has been adopted as standard although it isbotanically inappropriate. Although such names are used in these instances, this should not be taken as aprecedent to justify the acceptance of similar names in future.The lines in the tables are numbered to link codes and standard names to botanical species in the indexes.Index A lists codes and line numbersSIST EN 13556:2004
