From the viewpoint of paleoecology, this tree thus represents a native component of central European forests. For this period, (sub)fossil evidence is available for lowlands of the present-day Bohemia and Moravia, the Moravian section of the Carpathians and the margin of the Moravian Gate. In Slovakia, occurrence of Larix has been unequivocally ascertained by pollen and macro-remains analyses from the early part of the Last Full Glacial Period until the present time. In the Last Glacial Period Larix was a dominant woody species in forests of the Carpathians, and even in the outer and inner margin of the Carpathian Arch. It cannot be excluded that larch grew in Holocene forests in numerous sites in Moravia, and its small admixture might have persisted in forests of Bohemia until the historical period. As a less competitive tree in closed-canopy stands, and as a species selectively cut for its valuable timber, larch possibly became extinct as a result of human impact.
