Pinus georginae

Pinus georginae, commonly known (in Spanish) as Pino chino, is a species of medium-sized conifer in the family Pinaceae.

[1] Pinus georginae on average reaches 15-20 m (49-66 feet) tall, and 30-35 cm (12-14 inches) in diameter, with a generally rounded crown.

Crooked trunk with a low-lying, thick top, which is very similar to Pinus praetermissa (a closely related species).

[3] Primarily, the species is known to grow throughout the towns of Atenguillo, Cuautla, and Mascota, at elevations of 1400-1700 m (4593-5577 feet) in intermountain valleys, specifically south of the Rio Ameca river basin, with scattered individuals and some spread out stands.

[1] The general area where Pinus georginae occurs in Jalisco averages 932 mm (36.69 inches) of rain every year, with dry-temperate seasons of 70°F (21.6°C).

[2] No conservation status has been established for Pinus georginae yet, and is currently listed as "Not Evaluated" by many sources, although deforestation and wildfires may be common threats to its range.
