Pinus Halepensis - Version 2014.3. Farjon, A. In The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, pages 42366/0+. 2013. abstract bibtex [Excerpt] Pinus halepensis has a very extensive extent of occurrence (EOO) and although considered threatened locally (Algarve in Portugal, Costa Brava in Spain) elsewhere it is stable or perhaps expanding as its economic use for timber has at least in its native habitat diminished. The species is listed as Least Concern. [::Common Name(s)] [::]English - Aleppo Pine [::]Spanish - Pino Carrasco, Pino de Alepo [::]French - Pin d'Alep [::Range Description] Occurs in the Mediterranean from Morocco and Spain to Greece and the coast of Libya at Jabal al Akhdar, and in Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, and SW Syria. The extent of occurrence is well in excess of the thresholds for a threatened category. [::Countries] Native:Albania; Algeria; France (Corsica); Greece; Italy (Sicilia); Lebanon; Libya; Malta; Monaco; Montenegro; Morocco; Spain (Baleares); Syrian Arab Republic; Tunisia [::Population] The global population is thought to be stable. [::Habitat and Ecology] Aleppo Pine grows in the hotter parts of the Mediterranean coast, where brush and forest fires are frequent. Despite this, its seed cones are only semi-serotinous and do open in the absence of fire in the heat of the sun. Although closed stands exist, it is more commonly scattered in maquis or garrigue vegetation on sunny hills and slopes down to the sea shore, most commonly on limestone and dolomite. In stands where fire has been absent for a longer period, oaks (Quercus suber, Q. ilex) invade and will eventually dominate. Presumably increased frequency of fire caused by human activities gives the advantage to Pinus halepensis. Its altitudinal range is from sea level to ca. 1,700 m (in Morocco). [::Use and Trade] The wood of Aleppo Pine, due to size and shape of most trees and poor quality, is of little value as timber. It is presently used as firewood and for charcoal burning, in the past it served for mine props, railway sleepers, and telephone poles. It is rich in resin and still tapped locally for that product; plantations have been established for this use in Greece. Witches brooms are common in this pine and could be a source of dwarf cultivars in Mediterranean countries; the species is generally not hardy in more northern latitudes. It has been planted as wind breaks and to stop soil erosion on dry slopes. Ill considered plantations established in the southern hemisphere have given rise to invasiveness of this species; in Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa P. halepensis is now a serious weed threatening natural and often species-rich vegetation as well as land used for agriculture. [::Major Threat(s)] Coastal development, especially for tourist accommodation, has reduced the area of occupancy (AOO) locally. Fires commonly destroy stands, but the species is fire adapted and unless fires are too frequent, it will regenerate.
