Vochysia thyrsoidea begins with the green-barrier thermal analysis, its selected laboratory lineage. The evidence table computes those rows to on-list. The source depth remains limited evidence.

The related plants section supports comparison without extending thyrsoidea's accepted basis. Here the named study identifies the source lineage, the table supplies the computed direction, and the depth label describes how much evidence is present. Revisiting the accepted rows preserves those distinctions rather than turning a comparison route or limited pack into an additional laboratory result on this thyrsoidea record's own direct source trail.

How to read this page

The status above is computed from the cited rows below: independent recommendations can support a fire-resistant result, an avoid row can produce keep-away, and disagreement stays visible as conflict. Placement notes preserve each source’s own scheme rather than translating unlike rules into one scale. This is evidence about a plant, not permission to plant it in every part of the defensible space; Zone 0 remains noncombustible.

The evidence

Grouped by what each source concluded. Primary evidence rated the plant itself (a lab, field program, or original curation); corroboration compiled or republished another source's rating and resolves to its root lineage.
