SC - Pine nuts

[Decker, Terry D.]

Here is a brief, incomplete list, of conifers producing edible pine nuts.  I
haven't located pictures of the seeds to see if the resemble each other.  I
found it interesting that at least 3 species are considered to be Pinons.

Araucaria imbricata  (Chile pine)  Andes
Pinus Cembra  (Swiss stone pine)  Alps
Pinus Pinea fragilis (Tarentine pine)  Italy

Pinus edulis  (Pinon pine)  North America
Pinus parryana  (Pinon pine)  North America
Pinus monophylla  (Pinon pine)  North America
