Stem discs were taken at one-meter intervals along the tree stem up to a diameter of 3 cm. For 45 of these species with more than 4 stems sampled the stem basic density varied between 301-854 kg m-3. Bark proportion of stem biomass varied between 9-53 . Indications of decreased basic density and increased bark proportion with height of the stem and with decreased stem size was found for several species. Data presented provides a basis for the construction of models to convert standing woody volumes over bark to oven-dry mass whereby the bark proportion of the stem biomass can be determined. specific gravity humidity content indigenous species fuel-wood biomass Résumé - Densité basale de tronc et proportion d ecore de 45 espèces ligneuses issues de taillis dans une savane du Burkina Faso. Un échantillon de 1287 individus appartenant à 57 espèces et 22 familles de ligneux de savane a été coupé au Burkina Faso. Ces individus sont issus de 5 populations âgées de 5 à 14 ans pro venant de 4 sites dont la pluviométrie est comprise entre 620 et 785 mm. Des disques ont été pris à 1 m d intervalle le long de la tige jusqu à un diamètre de 3 cm. Pour 45 de ces espèces comprenant plus de 4 tiges échantillonnées la densité basale a varié entre 301 et 850 kg m-3 et la proportion d écorce entre 9 et 53 . Une diminution de la densité basale et une augmentation de la proportion d écorce en fonction de la hauteur ont été observées pour plusieurs espèces. Les données .
