Abstract
The identification of wood species presupposes a basic knowledge of wood anatomy. In the following review on the structure of wood, main attention has been paid to the features which are of interest to the fiber microscopist, that is, to the kinds of wood cells, and the pits which are the most important diagnostic feature in the identification of wood species in pulp. The Structure of Wood is largely based on a paper published by the author in 1977.
