Discussion
In the flora area, Crataegus laevigata is known only from the San Juan Islands; alleged wild records from elsewhere in North America proved to be misidentifications. The species is widespread in central Europe and scarce beyond that. Woodland hawthorn is more shade-tolerant than many other species, hence the common name.
Crataegus laevigata has more shallowly incised leaves and more obtuse lobes than other species in ser. Crataegus.
Pink- or red-petaled cultivated forms attributed to Crataegus laevigata are important ornamentals; they are usually cultivars of C. ×media Bechstein. Similar colored cultivars of true C. laevigata are scarce in North America.
