This name covers all sexual hybrids between Mespilus and Crataegus. Those who include Mespilus within Crataegus name them simply as Crataegus hybrids; we list these synonyms. Graft hybrids between the two are chimaeras which contain tissues from each parent; they are named + Crataegomespilus (q.v.) although the two are sometimes confused in listings.
