ORANTES-GARCIA, Carolina; PEREZ-FARRERA, Miguel Ángel; DEL CARPIO-PENAGOS, Carlos Uriel  y  TEJEDA-CRUZ, César. Native tropical timber resource use in the community of Emilio Rabasa, at the Selva El Ocote Biosphere Reserve in Chiapas, Mexico. Madera bosques [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.3, pp.07-21. ISSN 2448-7597.

This study aimed to identify the use of native tropical timber resources in the Emilio Rabasa community located in the Ocote Forest Biosphere Reserve, in Chiapas state, Mexico. 30 semi-structured surveys were conducted with ejidatarios "land-owners", and several specimens were collected for their identification. A total of 35 native timber species were determined, included in 31 genera and 24 families.The main multipurpose timber species mentioned were bojón (Cordia alliodora (R. & P.) Oken), palo amarillo (Terminalia obovata (R. & P.) Steud), mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla G. King), the jolocín (Heliocarpus donnell-smithii Rose), cedar (Cedrela odorata M. Roem. King) and copalchi (Croton guatemalensis Lotsy). Among the main uses that the community gives these timber species are 38% for extraction of firewood and fence posts, 17% for making tools and 16% for making furniture, construction and houses repair.
