Pinus luchuensis, commonly called Luchu pine[2] or Okinawa pine,[2] is a species of conifer in the Pinaceae family endemic to, and locally abundant in the Ryukyu Islands of Japan.[1][2] It was once threatened by habitat loss in the wild, where it can be found growing in small stands near windy ocean shores.[1] Having been harvested widely since the Second World War, the remaining stands are no longer commercially viable,[1] except when cultivated for ornamental use.[2]
