N2 - We compiled and presented a dataset (named “MADERA”) for all timber species reported in the Amazon region from all nine South American Amazonian countries. This work was based on official information from every country and on two substantial scientific references. Our final Amazonian timber species dataset contains 1,112 unique species records, which belong to 337 genera and 72 families from the lowland Amazonian rainforest, with associated information related to population, conservation (IUCN Red list categories), and trade status (ITTO/CITES) of each species. The authors of this research expect that the information provided will be useful to strengthen sustainable forest management and scientific research in the Amazonian region.
