Caribbean Pine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Caribbean Pine (Pinus caribaea) is a hard pine native to Central America, Cuba and the Bahamas and Turks and Caicos Islands.
Pinus caribaea inhabits the low savanah lands and low mountain ranges in Central America and the previously mentioned islands. Fire plays a major role limiting the range of this species, as it has been reported that this tree regenerates quickly and aggressively, replacing lattifoliate trees. So, in zones not subject to periodical fire, the succesion continues and a tropical forest thrives.
While the species as a whole is not threatened, the typical variety of Cuba has markedly declined due to deforestation and is now considered a vulnerable species by the IUCN.
