  Pseudolarix - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pseudolarix is a monotypic genus in the family Pinaceae.
The sole species, Pseudolarix amabilis is commonly known as Golden Larch, though it is not a true larch (Larix), being more closely related to Keteleeria, Abies and Cedrus.
Golden Larch is sometimes known under an old scientific name Pseudolarix kaempferi, but this may cause confusion with Larix kaempferi, the Japanese Larch.

 Keteleeria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Keteleeria is a genus of three species of coniferous trees in the family Pinaceae, related to the genera Nothotsuga and Pseudolarix.
It is distinguished from Nothotsuga by the much larger cones, and from Pseudolarix by the evergreen leaves and the cones not disintegrating readily at maturity.
All three genera share the unusual feature of male cones produced in umbels of several together from a single bud, and also in their ability, very rare in the Pinaceae, of being able to coppice.

 Baltic Amber
An important and relevant observation is that the ecological systems which are supported by the Pseudolarix trees in China appear to reflect those presumed and extrapolated from the inclusions discovered in Baltic amber.
What is equally interesting is the presence of Pseudolarix pine cones in a fossil resin discovered on the Axel Heiburg island in Canada which also has succinic acid present.
Pseudolarix is therefore beginning to look more likely as the true source of the Baltic Amber deposits.

 Golden Fortune
The answer is, yes, but it may not be the type of fortune that some of us would like to receive.
The Golden Larch, Pseudolarix amabilis, was one of 190 species and varieties of plants that Robert Fortune successfully introduced to Europe.
It is now named Pseudolarix amabilis as the botanical Latin 'amabilis' means 'lovely' referring to the trees foliage.

 Notes RBG Edinb
In three genera, Pseudolarix, Keteleeria and Nothotsuga, the male cones occur in umbels of 5—20 arising together from a single bud (Cheng and Fu, 1978), unusual in Pinaceae though shared by some members of Taxodiaceae (Sciadopitys and Cunninghamia) among the other conifers.
The apparent close similarity of the foliage of Larix to Pseudolarix does not extend to any great detail and is confined to the shoot arrangement and deciduous leaves—both factors very liable to selective pressure—and is almost certainly due to convergent evolution.
The shoot dimorphism of Pseudolarix is noticeably less than that of Larix, with the short shoots extending about 3 mm annually as opposed to under 0.5 mm in Larix.

Micropylar fluid absent: Abies, Cedrus, Keteleeria, Nothotsuga, Pseudolarix, Tsuga.
Branches: Lateral branches well developed and similar to leading (long) shoots, or reduced to well-defined short (spur) shoots (Larix, Pseudolarix, Cedrus) or dwarf shoots (Pinus); twigs terete, sometimes clothed by persistent primary leaves or leaf bases; longest internodes between leaves less than 1 cm; buds conspicuous.
Keteleeria and Pseudolarix are mainly botanical garden subjects.

 Amber and the Flood
Today, Pseudolarix is found in forests of eastern China.
When storms rage in the Baltic, currents stir up the sea floor, and amber floats to the surface and then drifts to the beaches where it is picked up.
When the resin oozed out of the tree, some insects, tree parts etc were trapped and covered with the resin.

This work led to the astonishing conclusion that several tens of Cenozoic European plant genera are now living only in East Asia (e.
The most probable explanation for this situation is that SE Asia, during the climatic changes of the late Cenozoic, acted as a refuge area for these plant genera, which were formerly distributed in a wide belt throughout Eurasia, or in many cases, throughout the Northern Hemisphere.
