| Notes: | Source: Spruce, R. (1855) Domestic Uses. Plantae Amazonicae. Domestic Uses. (pp31-61) and miscellaneous notes, p36: Use of thin layers of bark under name Tauarí seems to have sprung up on the Amazon. As Indian names refer chiefly to properties; the same, tree may have 2 or more names. Thus every Pao d'Arco is also a Tauarí, but some Tauarí are also Carlanka- Sapucayu. | ||||
