Species of conifers can be found in almost all parts of the world, and are often the most common plants in their habitats, such as in the taiga. Conifers are of great economic value, and their wood is mainly used for timber and paper making. The wood of conifers is known as softwood, though yew wood is actually quite hard. The division Conifer contains about 700 living species. They were the dominant land plants of the Mesozoic era.
