The Caribbean pine Pinus caribaea is a hard pine native to Central America Cuba the Bahamas and the Turks and Caicos Islands. It belongs to Australes Subsection in Pinus Subgenus. It inhabits tropical and subtropical coniferous forests which include both lowland savannas and montane forests. Wildfire plays a major role limiting the range of this species but it has been reported that this tree regenerates quickly and aggressively replacing latifoliate trees.
