Default fade resistance

Looking for a list of wood types (esp. exotics) showing the relative
resistance to natural fading or darkening by UV. Anybody have such a
site or resource ?

Cocobolorose,

Two exotics which have a good tolerance for UV are cardinalwood (bloodwood) and
chakte vega (paela). I don't know of a list of UV resistant woods. Maybe
you'll have to create your own list.
