This looks like Red Oak that has a dark stain. You are trying to match the stain or the wood species? First growth from mature forests have a lot of tight grain, with lots of growth rings compared to modern lumber and flooring, so the look is slightly different. It looks more like plywood. The stain color will need to be matched with samples on wood starting with a walnut color, maybe dark walnut, maybe rosewood, or dark oak. When the stain is wet it will look similar to what it does with a coat of finish on it.
