Basal scarring, a conspicuous abnormality of western white pine (Pinus monticola Dougl.) and its associated species in the Interior region of British Columbia, was found to be chiefly attributable to injury by bears, infections of Armillaria mellea (Vahl ex Fr.)

The implications of the various types of scarring are considered.
