For a full discussion of this table, see WORLD WIDE CYPRESS NAMES

caveats:

• species are NOT limited to ones that grow in North America
• common names are limited to ones that include the word "cypress" (cypress woods go by MANY other names, particularly varieties of pine and cedar. I have removed all such names unless they also included the word cypress.
• I do not guarantee the accuracy of this list
• apologies for the inappropriate lack of capitalization
