Sorbus pseudomeinichii of the location. The species is named after Glen Catacol where it was found and one of the two surviving plants is thought to be more than fifty years old. Sorbus pseudomeinichii Sorbus pseudomeinichii, known as false rowan and Catacol whitebeam, is a rare tree endemic to the Isle of Arran in south west Scotland. It is believed to have arisen as a hybrid of the native rowan ("Sorbus aucuparia") and the cut-leaved whitebeam ("Sorbus pseudofennica") which is in turn a rowan/Arran whitebeam ("Sorbus arranensis") hybrid. Only two specimens of the Catacol whitebeam are known, making it the rarest tree
Sorbus × intermedia each side of the leaf, broadest near the middle, rounded at the apex, and finely serrated margins. The autumn colour is dull yellowish to grey-brown. The flowers are 15–20 mm diameter, with five white petals and 20 yellowish-white stamens; they are produced in corymbs 8–12 cm diameter in late spring. The fruit is an oval pome 15 mm long and 10 mm diameter, orange-red to red, maturing in mid autumn. The fruit is dryish, and eaten by thrushes and waxwings, which disperse the seeds. "Sorbus intermedia" is a triple hybrid between "S. aucuparia", "S. torminalis", and either "S. aria" or
