    .  A Heavy and Hard wood with a moderate workability.  The grain is straight to interlocked, fine even texture with excellent natural luster.  Cocobolo is listed in  CITES appendix II and is on the IUCN red list.  It is vulnerable due to a population reduction of over 20% in the past three generations.  However
    plantation growing is on the rise in South America.
