Hi Frieda, I think it is Urera baccifera (L.)Gaud. ex Wedd. Urticaceae family.

Arvind Singh

I don't think that this is Urera baccifera? Dr. Frieda have you any image of the bole of this tree?

Frieda Billiet

Surely not Urera baccifera. Unfortunately, I have no other photos ... the shrub was about 2 or 3 m high.

May be Ulmus rubra Muhl of Ulmaceae family because it is deciduous but is a medium sized tree species.

It seems a species of Ulmus . Most probably Ulmus americana Linn.

Sorry, I insist about the shrub if is not Urera baccifera, is an Urticaceae family, tropical , check it Discocnide mexicana!

Does Discocnide mexicana produces samara type of fruit depicted in image 2?

José Luis Fernández-Alonso

I agree with Discocnide mexicana (Liebm.) Chew. (Urticaceae), Mesoamerican monotypic genus.

Indeed it is Discocnide mexicana. Thank you for your help !

Ok, that good that this determination has been helpful!

you have nice week!
