Xylosma serrata

Species of flowering plant From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Xylosoma serrata is a species of flowering plant in the family Salicaceae. It is endemic to the island of Montserrat. It was known from only a single location on the south of the island, and this has now been covered by pyroclastic flows from the volcanic eruption. It is therefore possibly extinct,[2] but marked by IUCN as critically endangered because of the lack of data.[1]
