About

Xylosma domingensis is a species of flowering plant in the family Salicaceae, endemic to Hispaniola.

Where it grows

The endemic extent of Xylosma domingensis is restricted to the Caribbean island of Hispaniola, where it is found in both the Dominican Republic and Haiti. One notable locality the plant occurs in is the Valley of Constanza, where it is supposedly very abundant although sterile. Though not explicitly stated to be introduced outside of its native range, it has been preserved in Spain.
