What does the word "Guatemalensis" mean? The “Guatemalensis” word is a castilianization of the Latin word “Coactemalensis”. Concept for “Guatemala”. The “Guatemalensis” word describes other several meanings associated with plants and animals, but especially we have taken the word Guatemalensis from “Abies guatemalensis” as the name of a species of conifer in the family Pinaceae. Natural of Central America, the southern Mexico, Guatemala, the northern Honduras and southern El Salvador. Due to loss of its habitat is a species in endangered.
