Spanish term or phrase: (árboles) con /sin gambas

Se trata de un informe sobre un bosque y sus especies. Este es la frase de contexto:
el diámetro arriba del pecho (Dap) para árboles sin gambas o el diámetro arriba de las gambas (para árboles con gambas) con cortezas en centímetros para el largo de fuste en metros del tocón o encima de las gambas hasta el punto de copa.
No encuentro una traducción satisfactoria. Alguien sabe cómo se dice en inglés?
Gracias!
