Vegetation: Needleleaf‚ coniferous (gymnosperm) trees are the dominant plants of the taiga biome. A very few species in four main genera are found: the evergreen spruce (Picea)‚ fir (Abies)‚ and pine (Pinus)‚ and the deciduous larch or tamarack (Larix). In North America‚ one or two species of fir and one or two species of spruce are dominant.
