The genus Pinus was present by Cretaceous times, but identification of section Strobus from fossil seed cones of this age has been equivocal (Miller, 1977). Most paleobotanical data specifically on P. strobus deals with late Quaternary range shifts from refugia in the southeastern United States northward into the present range (summarized by MacDonald et al., 1998).
