Abstract
Geographical and chronological repartition of the various species (cembran pine, birch, oak, maple, walnut, elm, poplar, spruce, silver fir, willow and linden) of which the more than 400 sculptures of the SLM collection are made are discussed. The article is connected with an appendix (in German) by F. Schweingruber who carried out the identification work. It deals with botanical and wood-technological aspects of the results of the investigation. -- AATA
