|discussion=<p>The difficulties of typification and taxonomy for black-fruited species were discussed by J. Fryer and B. Hylmö (1997). Some collections of <i>Cotoneaster villosulus</i> from eastern Washington need study. They approach the very similar C. hsingshangensis J. Fryer & B. Hylmö, a Chinese species with larger, more wrinkled leaves, more globose pomes, and less densely hairy flowers.</p>
