Pinus latteri, or Tenasserim pine, is a medium-sized to large tree native to Mainland Southeast Asia. It grows in the mountains of southeastern Burma, northern Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, and on the Chinese island of Hainan, generally at altitudes of 400–1,200 m. It has orange-red bark, moderately slender leaves 15–20 cm long and just over 1 mm thick, and narrow conic cones 6–14 cm long and 4 cm broad at the base when closed. It is closely related to Sumatran pine (Pinus merkusii), which differs in shorter and slenderer leaves, smaller cones with thinner scales, the cones opening at maturity, and seeds only half the weight. It is also related to the group of Mediterranean pines including Aleppo pine and Turkish pine, which share many features with it.
