* Pinus densata, commonly known as the Sikang Pine, is a species of conifer in the Pinaceae family.

It is endemic-found only in China. more...
* Closely related to P. yunnanensis. Li (1997) contends that morphological study (Wu 1956) and molecular analysis (Wang and Szmidt 1990) suggest this is a hybrid, P. yunnanensis × tabuliformis, which arose during the Tertiary.
* Trees to 30 m tall and 130 cm dbh with an ovoid-conical crown, spreading in old trees. Bark red-brown, scaly and plated when young, turning dark gray-brown with irregular square, thick plates.
* There may be individual trees of P. densata that are only related to each other through an intermediary that belongs to a different species. more...
