This guide targets trade in ramin (Gonystylus spp.) a light tropical hardwood, native to peat forest swamps of Southeast Asia, which is regulated on Appendix II of CITES. The vital information required by CITES authorities and traders is provided, in a simple and visually attractive form; what requires permits, international trade patterns and the identification of wood and products in trade.
