Haematoxylon (from the Greek for blood and wood, in reference to the color of the latter). Leguminosae. Two or 3 species of trees from Mex., Cent. Amer. and W. Indies, of which the most important, H. campechianum, Linn., furnishes the logwood of commerce. It is a medium-sized tree, reaching 30-45 ft., with a short crooked trunk: lvs. abruptly pinnate; lfts. obversely egg-shaped: fls. small, yellow, in axillary racemes; petals 5, oblong, expanding; stamens free, rather upright, with filaments hairy at base; ovary short-stiped, free, with 2-3 seeds: pod lanceolate, flattened, dehiscing along the median valve in 2 boat-shaped pseudo-valves.—The wood is very hard and heavy, the heart-wood, from which the sapwood has been removed, being used for making the dye. The wood takes on a beautiful brownish red color on exposure to the air. This tree is known as Cam- peachy wood, logwood, and in Porto Rico as Palo de Campeche. L. H. B.<br />
