description This study aimed to identify the use of native tropical timber resources in the Emilio Rabasa community located in the Ocote Forest Biosphere Reserve, in Chiapas state, Mexico. 30 semi-structured surveys were conducted with ejidatarios “land-owners”, and several specimens were collected for their identification. A total of 35 native timber species were determined, included in 31 genera and 24 families.The main multipurpose timber species mentioned were bojón (Cordia alliodora (R. & P.) Oken), palo amarillo (Terminalia obovata (R. & P.) Steud), mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla G. King), the jolocín (Heliocarpus donnell-smithii Rose), cedar (Cedrela odorata M. Roem. King) and copalchi (Croton guatemalensis Lotsy). Among the main uses that the community gives these timber species are 38% for extraction of firewood and fence posts, 17% for making tools and 16% for making furniture, construction and houses repair.

El presente estudio tuvo como finalidad conocer el aprovechamiento de los recursos maderables tropicales nativos por parte de la comunidad Emilio Rabasa, ubicada en la Reserva de la Biosfera Selva El Ocote, en el estado de Chiapas, México. Se realizaron encuestas semiestructuradas a 30 ejidatarios y se colectaron ejemplares para la identificación de las especies. Se determinó un total de 35 especies maderables nativas, incluidas en 31 géneros y 24 familias. Las principales especies maderables multipropósito mencionadas fueron el bojón (Cordia alliodora (R. & P.) Oken), el palo amarillo (Terminalia obovata (R. & P.) Steud) la caoba (Swietenia macrophylla G. King), el jolocín (Heliocarpus donnell-smithii Rose), el cedro (Cedrela odorata M. Roem. King) y el copalchi (Croton guatemalensis Lotsy). Entre los principales usos que la comunidad le da a las especies maderables está, 38% la extracción de leña y postes para cercado, 17% para la elaboración de herramientas de trabajo y 16% para la elaboración de muebles, construcción y reparación de casas.
