0 — tracheids only — definite vessels not observed
1 — multiple perforation plates with "pithlike" perforations that span ≤ 1 vessel-parenchyma pit on the adjacent lateral wall
2 — multiple perforation plates with "narrow" perforations that span >1 to ≤ 2 vessel-parenchyma pits
3 — multiple perforation plates with "medium size" perforations that span >2 to ≤ 5 vessel-parenchyma pits
4 — multiple perforation plates with "wide" perforations that span >5 vessel-parenchyma pits, or with ≤ 3 bars
5 — mixture of multiples perforation plates (as in #4) and simple perforation plates
6 — simple perforation plate only
