SUMMARY:

Logging is an activity with a high economic factor in the main states of the Amazonian biome, between the months of August 2019 and July 2021 alone, 464,000 hectares of forest for timber production in the Legal Amazon. The least predatory way to exploit forest resources is through sustainable forest management, where it is possible to meet the high demand for timber and non-timber forest products, in addition to mitigating the damage caused in the region. In the process of botanical identification of forest species in inventories, common nomenclature is used and this practice can lead to misunderstandings, since a species can have several vernacular names, as well as a common name can indicate several species, and for the correct identification in the field it is necessary the morphological knowledge of the species, however, not always the characteristics are available for viewing, thus, the wood anatomy of forest species is of fundamental importance in the process of identifying and differentiating species, because the qualitative and quantitative anatomical characters can influence the grouping and distinction of similar species. In this sense, the objective of the present study is to use the anatomy of wood as a tool for the correct scientific identification of wood species and thus contribute to improvements in management. The study area is located in forest management unit IV of Floresta Estadual (FLOTA) do Paru, in the municipality of Monte Alegre, state of Pará. The experimental design will be completely randomized (CRD), for that 19 common names most commercialized in the region will be selected in which for each name samples of 5 trees will be collected, totaling 95 samples. Macroscopic and microscopic anatomical characterizations (qualitative and quantitative) of the samples will be carried out, followed by scientific identification. With the development of the research, it is expected that the anatomy of the wood will be able to distinguish similar species that are being commercialized with the same common name, in addition to contributing to the conservation and correct commercialization of the analyzed woods.
