|discussion=<p><i>Crataegus gilva</i> occurs from Mississippi to Georgia and northern Florida. The leaves are rather like those of <i>C. mendosa</i>, but with an acuminate leaf apex, much sharper lobes (when present) and marginal teeth, and somewhat resemble a less clearly lobed <i>C. pinetorum</i>. The leaves are also usually somewhat like those of <i>C. sargentii</i> but narrower. In the flowering type, they are narrowly elliptic, with cuneate bases, virtually devoid of lobes, with particularly large marginal teeth and acuminate apices, this being the most extreme specimen of the species seen. The suspicion that <i>C. gilva</i> may represent an extreme form of <i>C. sargentii</i> is heightened by the almost complete lack of known fruiting specimens of the species, the fruiting co-type excepted (Harbison 4374/2); nevertheless, that specimen suggests the possibility that the leaves are often wider after anthesis. <i>Crataegus</i> agrestina Beadle, known only from a syntype specimen, is similar.</p>
