Crataegus flabellata occurs along the Niagara Escarpment in Ontario, on both sides of Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence, to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, and to Massachusetts. Reports for Newfoundland have not been substantiated. Crataegus flabellata is distinctive with its leaf blades glossy dark green, ovate to broadly elliptic, cuneate at the base, and with deep acuminate lobes. Specimens with less glandularity or serration of the sepal margins may resemble C. fluviatilis. In spite of the obvious differences in morphology and range, C. flabellata and C. macrosperma often have been combined by floristicians. From C. chrysocarpa, C. flabellata is distinguished by its shinier, ellipsoid, glabrous fruit, by the usually deeper, acuminate lobes of its glossy, dark green leaves, and by longer, slightly more acute sepals. Typically, the inflorescences and hypanthia of eastern C. chrysocarpa are densely hairy, practically tomentose, unlike C. flabellata with its more sparsely hairy pedicels and glabrous distal hypanthia. It is conceivable that, due to morphological intermediacy and the sympatry of all three species within the range of C. flabellata, this species represents the result of ancient hybridization between C. chrysocarpa and C. macrosperma. Crataegus flabellata is usually divided into two varieties: var. flabellata (10 stamens) and var. grayana (20 stamens), the latter being particularly common in southern Quebec. There appears to be little, if any, other constant differentiating feature. Crataegus crudelis, also from Quebec, is a form recognized by long thorns (to 10 cm). The name Crataegus densiflora Sargent, which pertains to C. flabellata, is illegitimate. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
Crataegus ×disperma has been found sporadically from Iowa east to Virginia and Pennsylvania, where the ranges of C. punctata and C. crus-galli overlap. Crataegus ×disperma belongs to a group of taxa intermediate between C. crus-galli and C. punctata; it may key to C. collina, although it has glossier leaves and usually fewer styles and pyrenes. Some specimens are more hairy, or with more strongly glandular-serrate sepal margins, than in the description, which is based on Ashe. Crataegus danielsii E. J. Palmer from Missouri, with glossy, more or less coriaceous, but lobed leaves is another problematic C. crus-galli × C. collina hybrid according to Palmer (1952). The pink-anthered C. ×disperma and cream-anthered C. ×incaedua are similar to C. collina var. sordida except for the number of styles and pyrenes (two or three).
