Reference Guide to Whitebark Pine

Abstract

The purpose of this guide is to provide an easy access to literature about whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) for those managers and researchers who are concerned with this species. Because of the uniqueness of the species and the lack of concentrated research programs in the past, documents about whitebark pine are found in a wide vari­ety of places, including some rather obscure sources. We assembled this guide to help those needing access to whitebark pine information. This document references all the literature we could find specific to whitebark pine. Biological Abstracts from 1927 to 1988 was our primary source of references; there­fore, bioabstract index numbers are provided to give the user easy access to the author's own annotation. Other papers-listed in Forestry Abstracts and Agricola were added. The papers included in this symposium proceed­ings are not listed here.
