Ulmus macrocarpa var. macrocarpa
A variety of the large-fruited elm, a hardy deciduous tree of northeast Asia found on hillslopes and in valleys of China, Korea, Mongolia and Siberia. It is a tree of cold, dry-to-moderate sites rather than a common garden or houseplant.
Ulmus macrocarpa var. macrocarpa L. K. Fu is found on hillslopes and in valleys at elevations of 700–800 m in the Chinese provinces of Anhui, Gansu, Hebei, Heilongjiang, Henan, Hubei, Jiangsu, Jilin, Liaoning, Nei Mongol, eastern Qinghai, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Shandong. Beyond China it is also found in Korea, Mongolia, and Russia (Siberia).
Fu sank Ulmus taihangshanensis S.Y.Wang as a synonym for this variety, but U. taihangshanensis, as described from Henan, differs in having more pubescent twigs which never develop corky wings, and thinner leaves (papery rather than leathery). [2]. U. taihangshanensis has more recently been sunk as a synonym of Ulmus lamellosa.
