Prunus reflexa is a species of tree in the family Rosaceae. It is native to South America. [1] [2]

Prunus is a genus of trees and shrubs, which includes the fruits plums, cherries, peaches, nectarines, apricots, and almonds.
Prunus subg. Padus is a subgenus of Prunus, characterised by having racemose inflorescences. Padus was originally a distinct genus, but genetic and morphological studies have shown that Padus is polyphyletic. It has been proposed that all the racemose taxa within Prunus are incorporated into a broad-sense Prunus subg. Padus.
Prunus serotina, commonly called black cherry, wild black cherry, rum cherry, or mountain black cherry, is a deciduous tree or shrub of the genus Prunus. Despite being called black cherry, it is not very closely related to the commonly cultivated cherries such as sweet cherry, sour cherry and Japanese flowering cherries which belong to Prunus subg. Cerasus. Instead, P. serotina belongs to Prunus subg. Padus, a subgenus also including Eurasian bird cherry and chokecherry. The species is widespread and common in North America and South America.
Prunus americana, commonly called the American plum, wild plum, or Marshall's large yellow sweet plum, is a species of Prunus native to North America from Saskatchewan and Idaho south to New Mexico and east to Québec, Maine and Florida.
Prunus guanaiensis is a species of tree in the family Rosaceae. It is native to western South America. Its phenotype suggests close affinity with three other South American species of Prunus; P. debilis, P. littlei and P. wurdackii.
Prunus occidentalis is a plant in the family Rosaceae of the order Rosales.
Prunus gentryi is a species of wild cherry in the genus Prunus, family Rosaceae, native to the Mexican states of Chihuahua and Sonora. It grows along streambanks in mountainous regions of the Sierra Madre Occidental. The scientific description was published in 1937.

Prunus huantensis is a South American tree native to mountain forests of Peru, Ecuador, and Colombia. It may be a synonym of Prunus brittoniana.
Prunus integrifolia is a tree native to mountain forests of western South America. It has much larger leaves than most other species in the genus, up to 25 centimetres long, with no teeth along the edges. The flowers are in an elongated raceme, rising vertically upwards rather than hanging as in some other species.
Prunus subcorymbosa is a species of tree in the family Rosaceae, and is native to montane forests from Costa Rica, Central America, to Venezuela and northern Peru, South America.
Prunus cortapico is a species of tree in the family Rosaceae, and is native to Mexico, Guatemala and El Salvador.
Prunus littlei is a species of tree in the family Rosaceae. It is native to mountain forests of northwestern South America. Its phenotype suggests close affinity with three other South American species of Prunus; P. debilis, P. guanaiensis and P. wurdackii.
Prunus brasiliensis is a species of tree in the family Rosaceae. It is native to Brazil and north-eastern Argentina.
Prunus subcoriacea is a species of tree in the family Rosaceae. It is native to South America.
Prunus oleifolia is a species of Prunus native to southern South America, including Bolivia, Paraguay, Brazil and Argentina. It is a tree 5-18 m tall. In spite of some confusion involving its missing holotype and poor descriptions, it is a good species, and a close relative of Prunus reflexa.
Prunus rhamnoides, Spanish: coralillo, Nahuatl languages: calaomit, and also iza and mataiza, is a species of Prunus in the family Rosaceae. It is native to Mexico and Central America. It is a tree 7.5 to 15 m tall. A shade tolerant species, it is considered an indicator of forest health. Local people use its timber for construction and household implements.
