  • have seen a documentatry of trees that look very similar to pine trees..but was wondering if that is what htey indeed were..how differen to the pine trees found in Alabama or souteasetern USA? how compare in size? which other kinds of trees are found in Afghanistan, pakistan, nepal etc?

  • Answer:

    These temperate conifer forests are dominated by fir (Abies spectabilis), larch (Larix griffithii), hemlock (Tsuga dumosa), Juniperus recurva, and Juniperus indica. Several colorful rhododendrons (Rhododendron hodgsonii, R. barbatum, R. campylocarpum, R. campanulatum, R. fulgens, R. thomsonii) grow profusely in the understory, along with Viburnum grandiflorum, Lonicera angustifolia, Betula utilis, Acer spp., Sorbus spp., Juniperus indica, and J. recurva. There is considerable species turnover among the rhododendrons along the east-west axis. Species common in central Nepal can be absent from the community in eastern Bhutan. This contributes to the overall diversity of the ecoregion.
