|discussion=<p><i>Crataegus holmesiana</i> ranges from Wisconsin and Illinois through the southern Great Lakes region to southern Quebec and Maine, and to Pennsylvania; it is common in much of its range and should be expected in West Virginia.</p><!--
--><p>In its usual form, <i>Crataegus holmesiana</i> is readily distinguished from <i>C. coccinea</i> vars. coccinea and pringlei, though occasional intermediates occur. <i>Crataegus</i> robesoniana Sargent [C. pedicellata var. robesoniana (Sargent) E. J. Palmer] is one and perhaps C. amicta Ashe [<i>C. holmesiana</i> var. amicta (Ashe) E. J. Palmer] is another. <i>Crataegus holmesiana</i> is routinely interpreted as a typical member of ser. Coccineae, thus, a villous inflorescence taxon with serrate sepals. However, the protologue by Ashe (authentic material not located) states that the inflorescences are glabrous and the sepals are nearly entire, causing confusion with <i>C. tenuifolia</i> Britton (ser. Tenuifoliae). Current usage for <i>C. holmesiana</i> became fixed after Ashe erected a <i></i></i>var.<i><i> villosa</i> with serrate sepals and villous inflorescences.</p>
