Haematoxylum campechianum, commonly known as blackwood, bloodwood tree, bluewood, campeachy tree, campeachy wood, campeche logwood, campeche wood, Jamaica wood, logwood or logwood tree, is a species of flowering tree in the legume family, Fabaceae, that is native to southern Mexico and introduced to the Caribbean, northern Central America, and other localities around the world. The tree was of great economic importance from the 17th century to the 19th century, when it was commonly logged and exported to Europe for use in dyeing fabrics. The tree's scientific name means "bloodwood" and its woodchips are still used as an important source of haematoxylin, which is used in histology for staining. The bark and leaves are also used in various medical applications. In its time, it was considered a versatile dye, and was widely used on textiles and also for paper. Logwood also played an important role in the lives of 17th-century buccaneers and into the Golden Age of Piracy, as English, Dutch, and French sailors recognized the value of logwood and set up camps to cut and collect the
