'''''Sorbus alnifolia''''' ([[syn.]] ''Aria alnifolia'') '''Alder-leafed Whitebeam''' or '''Korean Whitebeam''' is a species of [[whitebeam]] native to eastern [[Asia]] in [[China]], [[Korea]] and [[Japan]].<ref name=foc>Flora of China: [http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=2&taxon_id=200011662 ''Sorbus alnifolia'']</ref>

It is a medium-sized [[deciduous]] [[tree]] growing to 10–20 m tall with a trunk up to 30 cm diameter and grey [[bark]]; the crown is columnar or conic in young trees, becoming rounded with age, with branches angled upwards, and slender shoots. The [[leaf|leaves]] are green above, and thinly hairy with white hairs beneath, 5–10 cm long and 3–6 cm broad, simple, usually unlobed (but see varieties, below), broadest near the base, with serrated margins and an acute apex. The autumn colour is orange-pink to red. The [[flower]]s are 10–18 mm diameter, with five white petals and 20 yellowish-white stamens; they are produced in [[corymb]]s 4–8 cm diameter in late spring. The [[fruit]] is a globose [[pome]] 8–15 mm diameter, bright red, with a dimple at the apex; they are mature in mid autumn.<ref name=foc/><ref name=rushforth>Rushforth, K. (1999).

==Varieties==
 +
There are three [[variety (biology)|varieties]]:<ref name=foc/>
 +
*''Sorbus alnifolia'' var. ''alnifolia''. Leaves unlobed. Throughout the range of the species.
 +
*''Sorbus alnifolia'' var. ''angulata'' S.B.Liang. Leaves weakly lobed; fruit oblong. Northeast China, Korea.
 +
*''Sorbus alnifolia'' var. ''lobulata'' Rehder. Leaves weakly lobed; fruit globose. Shandong Province.
 +
 
 +
It has sometimes been placed in a separate genus of its own as ''Micromeles alnifolia'', differing from other whitebeams in the deciduous sepals on the fruit (persistent in other whitebeams), but genetic evidence places it close to ''[[Sorbus aria]]''.<ref name=rushforth/>
