Pressed specimen of a hickory, the type used for basket handles and rims by Sturgeon and said by him to be the type preferred by all basket makers on the island. He calls it "shell-bark." The rim for basket, field no. 116 (UMMAA 13956), was made from it. Collected 7/12/33 in Dave Osahgee's wood lot (from Volney Jones' 1933 field notes, Field no. 6).
