−Fragaria chiloensis, Duchesne. Fig. 1568. Low, but stout in all its parts: lvs. thick, more or less glossy above, bluish white below, blunt-toothed: fl.-clusters forking and long-rayed, the peduncle short, soon lopping on the ground: runners mostly appearing after the fr. is gone: berry large and firm, dark-colored, more or less musky in flavor, reinforced by a very large calyx or hull. Pacific coast region Peru to Patagonia. —A common wild strawberry of the Pacific slope from Alaska to Calif., is considered to be the same species.

+The '''beach strawberry''', '''Chilean strawberry''', or '''coastal strawberry''' (''Fragaria chiloensis'') is one of two species of [[strawberry]] that were [[Hybrid (biology)|hybridized]] to create the modern [[garden strawberry]] (''F. × ananassa''). It is noted for its large berries. Its natural range is the [[Pacific Ocean]] coasts of [[North America|North]] and [[South America]], and also [[Hawaii|Hawai{{okina}}i]]. [[Migratory birds]] are thought to have [[biological dispersal|dispersed]] ''F. chiloensis'' from the [[Pacific coast#North America|Pacific coast]] of North America to the mountains of Hawai{{okina}}i, [[Chile]], and [[Argentina]].<ref>{{cite book
