This part lists the standard trade names of 789 species or groups of species of Australian timbers. The standard trade names are in alphabetical sequence, based on the noun in the common name, e.g. grey gum is listed as gum, grey. Alongside each common name is given the botanical name or names and the authors of such names. In the fourth column is shown the State or States in which each timber occurs, the States being indicated as follows: N = New South Wales Q = Queensland S = South Australia T = Tasmania V = Victoria W = Western Australia Y = Northern TerritoryNOTE: The letter G indicates that the species also occurs in Papua-New Guinea. At the request of the National Standards Council of Papua New Guinea, the references to that country's species in the 1970 edition of this standard have been retained, but no attempt has been made to incorporate the local Papua New Guinea names.Information on other Papua New Guinea timbers has not been included, but some of the timbers are included in AS 1148 Nomenclature of Commercial Timbers Imported into Australia.In the third column, headed 'Classification', the letter 'H' indicates hardwood; or more specifically, the timbers of the botanical group Angiosperms, not all of which possess hard wood. The letter 'S' indicates the softwoods or timbers of the botanical group Gymnosperms, most of which are conifers. The index number shown in the left-hand column facilitates reference from Part 2, Alphabetical Index of All Names, to where those names are used in Part 1. In the column at the extreme right are listed 'local names' that have been, or are used for many timbers.
