Pinus ravii is a rare, disputed species of large-sized conifer in the family Pinaceae, closely similar to Pinus wallichiana and possibly synonymous with it. [1] [2] [3]

It is native to the Arunachal Pradesh of northern India, where it grows in a temperate climate within the Himalayan Mountain Range. [1] Pinus ravii is also reported to have a greyish-white bark with an abnormal structure compared to Pinus wallichiana (which it was originally listed as a synonym of [4] ).
