'''''Abies vejarii''''' is a species of [[fir]] native northeastern [[Mexico]], where it grows at high altitudes (2,000–3,300 m).<ref name=farjon>Farjon, A. (1990). ''Pinaceae. Drawings and Descriptions of the Genera''. Koeltz Scientific Books ISBN 3-87429-298-3.</ref><ref>Conifer Specialist Group 1998. [http://www.iucnredlist.org/search/details.php/42302/all Abies vejarii]. Downloaded on 10 July 2007.</ref>
It is a medium-sized [[evergreen]] [[tree]] growing to 35–40 m tall. The [[leaf|leaves]] are needle-like, moderately flattened, 1–2.5 cm long and 1.3–2 mm wide by 1 mm thick, grey-green with scattered [[stoma]]ta above, and with two greenish-white bands of stomata below. The tip of the leaf is acutely pointed. The [[conifer cone|cones]] are glaucous purple, maturing grey-brown, 6–15 cm long and 4–6 cm broad, with about 150–200 scales, each scale with a bract of which the apical 3–8 mm is exserted on the closed cone, and two winged [[seed]]s; they disintegrate when mature to release the seeds.<ref name=farjon/>
