Pinus nigra, the European black pine, is a moderately variable species of pine, occurring across Southern Europe from the Iberian Peninsula and Lower Austria to the eastern Mediterranean, on the Anatolian peninsula of Turkey, Corsica and Cyprus, as well as Crimea and in the high mountains of Northwest Africa. Several of the regional populations have their own names, including Austrian pine, Corsican pine, Crimean pine, and Pyreneean pine.
