Pinus clausa (Chapm. ex Engelm.)Vasey ex Sarg.
SAND PINE
**
Variety clausa has been recognized by serotinous cones resulting in even-aged stands and more common in the peninsula. Variety immuginata has been characterized by non-serotinous cones resulting in mixed-age stands and more common in the panhandle (Ward 1963). However, due to widespread variability in cone morphology, Myers (in Myers & Ewel 1990) wrote "there seems to be no compelling reason to distinguish two varieties".
