A tropical South American tree with hard, durable wood; also called bucaro or bucaje, valued for construction and crafts.
From Spanish or Portuguese, ultimately from indigenous Amazonian languages naming this particular tree species.
Buccaro wood is so dense and durable that it's been used for centuries in both indigenous crafts and European furniture-making—one tree could outlast the person who carved it.
