Belizean pine forests

The Belizean pine forests is an ecoregion that represents an example of lowland and premontane pine forests in the Neotropics, where the dominant tree species is Honduras Pine. The vegetation here is generally adapted to the xeric, acidic and nutrient-poor conditions along the Belizean near coastal zone of the Caribbean versant.[1]
