Seed germination and seedling survival of Abies pinsapo Boiss. were studied in three diferent habitats of Sierra de Grazalema (Ca?diz): in a gap-forest, under canopy and outside forest. Highest germination of seeds took place outside forest, but seedlings died quickly. Inside forest, the gap was the best place for germination of seeds and seedling survival.
