Does anyone know what the highlighted wood on the top right is?

I'm pretty sure it's dyed spalted karelian birch (aka masur birch).

Most of the other stuff in the photo also looks to me like karelian birch.

The maker originally said he forgot, but is now confident that it is spalted maple.
 
Something spalted for sure. Spalted maple? Not confident though. Interesting dark brown color. Dyed box elder?
So I guess you were right. Supposedly it is not dyed.
