Pinus caribaea Morelet. Pinaceae. CN: Caribbean pine, Nicaraguan pine, Pitch pine. Native to Mexico; Caribbean - Bahamas, Cuba; Mesoamerica - Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Turks and Caicos Islands; elsewhere cultivated in silviculture to overcome the international shortage of long-fibered wood for paper manufacturing. A medium-sized evergreen tree up to ca. 35 m or more; straight, cylindrical trunk and a rounded to pyramid-shaped crown. The lower branches are usually long, slender and drooping, while the upper branches often point upwards; bark is reddish-brown to greyish, and is divided by deep cracks into rough, irregularly-shaped plates; the needle-like leaves of the Caribbean pine grow at the end of the twigs in bundles of three to five.

Pinus ponderosa Douglas in Lawson & Lawson, 1836 - ponderosa pine (Dawes Arboretum, Licking County, Ohio, USA)
Plants are multicellular, photosynthesizing eucaryotes. Most species occupy terrestrial environments, but they also occur in freshwater and saltwater aquatic environments. The oldest known land plants in the fossil record are Ordovician to Silurian. Land plant body fossils are known in Silurian sedimentary rocks - they are small and simple plants (e.g., Cooksonia). Fossil root traces in paleosol horizons are known in the Ordovician. During the Devonian, the first trees and forests appeared. Earth's initial forestation event occurred during the Middle to Late Paleozoic. Earth's continents have been partly to mostly covered with forests ever since the Late Devonian. Occasional mass extinction events temporarily removed much of Earth's plant ecosystems - this occurred at the Permian-Triassic boundary (251 million years ago) and the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary (65 million years ago).
The most conspicuous group of living plants is the angiosperms, the flowering plants. They first unambiguously appeared in the fossil record during the Cretaceous. They quickly dominated Earth's terrestrial ecosystems, and have dominated ever since. This domination was due to the evolutionary success of flowers, which are structures that greatly aid angiosperm reproduction.
The tree shown here is Pinus ponderosa, the ponderosa pine. Pines are conifers (= gymnosperms, not angiosperms). Ponderosa pines are native to much of western America. Many specimens have a distinctive scent of butterscotch, or sometimes caramel. Needles are clustered in tufts of three each.
