Dear list members,

I am working on wood charcoal from Pakistan for my PhD and have  
recently found some conifer species that I am trying to identify. I  
have arrived to Family (Pinaceae) but I am having problems discerning  
genus and species for lack of reference material.

Do any of you have, or can tell me where to find, descriptions and  
possibly pictures of Pinus gerardiana, P. roxburghii and Cedrus  
deodara? I am almost sure it is one of these three as both Pine and  
Cedar have been previously identified in archaeological material from  
this area. Unfortunately the publications I have read don't get to  
species level for pine and don't give a full description of cedar.

Many thanks for your help.

Carla
