HABITAT TYPES AND PLANT COMMUNITIES : 
Red pine is often codominant with white pine (Pinus strobus) and/or jack
pine (P. banksiana).  Red pine often forms open stands and, prior to
logging and settlement, was the prominent woody species in the pine
barrens of Wisconsin [7,43].

The following published classifications list red pine as dominant or
codominant.
