Pinus dabeshanensis Cheng et Law is one of those species that are endangered
and endemic to China, this species was documented with second priority
in October 1992 in the species list of trees which were the first time
assigned to b conserved in China. This species was formally described
by Professor Zheng Wanjun based on the first collection of this species
in Yuexi County, Anhui Province, China in 1956. It was found that the
natural occurrence of this pine is just limited in the mountains with
altitudes ranging 700-1200m in the adjacent area between Anhui and Hubei
Provinces. Th biological characteristics of this species is rarely known
because of its very limited distribution only in the Dabieshan mountain
area, however, the economic value of its timber is even greater than that
of Pinus armandii Franch. P. hwangshanensis Hsia and P. koraiensis Sieb.
