|discussion=<p><i>Crataegus floridana</i> is frequent in north-central Florida and extends through much of Georgia with single records from Kershaw County, South Carolina, and Brunswick County, North Carolina.</p><!--
--><p><i>Crataegus floridana</i> resembles <i>C. quaesita</i> in its more or less obtrullate, but distally lobed leaves (which can always be observed fluttering in the wind) and longer petioles. The largest leaves in subser. Tenues may be found in <i>Crataegus floridana</i>; there is considerable size variation. The depth and sharpness of the lobes is variable, with a maximum in the proportionately broadest leaves, these having been called C. anisophylla. Differences from 146. <i>C. meridiana</i> are noted there.</p>
