Sometime recently, the Wood Database website was updated with some very cool sorting features. There are now a bunch of checkbox filter options, even including CITES status. There also some cool slider filters on the right side of the page that allow you to to filter for woods that fall within a selected range of hardness, modulus of elasticity, etc. by positioning two sliders within the given range.

Worth a look if you if you've used that website as a resource or just want to geek out over wood characteristics.

Thanks for the heads-up. That site is a great resource but it was a little awkward to navigate between entries.
