-'''Greek Fir''' ('''''Abies cephalonica''''') is a [[fir]] native to the [[mountain]]s of [[Greece]], primarily in the [[Peloponnesos]] and the island of [[Kefallinia]]. It is a medium-size [[evergreen]] [[Pinophyta|coniferous]] [[tree]] growing to 25-35 m (rarely 40 m) tall and with a trunk diameter of up to 1 m. It occurs at altitudes of 900-1,700 m, on mountains with a rainfall of over 1,000&nbsp;mm.

-The [[leaf|leaves]] are needle-like, flattened, 1.5-3&nbsp;cm long and 2&nbsp;mm wide by 0.5&nbsp;mm thick, glossy dark green above, and with two blue-white bands of [[stomata]] below. The tip of the leaf is pointed, usually fairly sharply but sometimes with a blunt tip, particularly on slow-growing shoots on older trees. The [[conifer cone|cones]] are 10-20&nbsp;cm long and 4&nbsp;cm broad, with about 150-200 scales, each scale with an exserted bract and two winged [[seed]]s; they disintegrate when mature to release the seeds.
