===''Calocedrus decurrens''===
''[[Calocedrus decurrens]]'', California incense cedar (syn. ''Libocedrus decurrens''), is native to western [[North America]], with the bulk of the range in the [[United States]], from [[King County, Washington|King County]] in [[Washington (state)|Washington]], through central western [[Oregon]] and most of [[California]] as well as [[Washoe County, Nevada|Washoe County]] the extreme west of [[Nevada]], and also a short distance into northwest [[Mexico]] in northern [[Baja California (state)|Baja California]].<ref>[http://bonap.net/MapGallery/County/Calocedrus%20decurrens.png Biota of North America 2013 county distribution map, ''Calocedrus decurrens'']</ref> It is a large tree, typically reaching heights of 40–60 m and a trunk diameter of up to 3 m (maxima, 69 m tall and 3.9 m diameter), and with a broad conic crown of spreading branches. The leaves are bright green on both sides of the shoots, and the cones 2–2.5 cm long. It is by far the most widely known species in the genus, and is often simply called "incense cedar" without the regional qualifier. This tree is the preferred host of a [[wood wasp]], ''[[Anaxyelidae|Syntexis libocedrii]]'' which lays its eggs in the smoldering wood immediately after a forest fire. The epithet ''decurrens'' is the present participle of dēcurrō, meaning running or flowing down.<ref>{{cite book | last1 = Chase| first1 = J. Smeaton| authorlink1 = J.
