|discussion=<p>This treatment follows G. N. Jones’s (1946) and E. G. Voss’s (1972–1996, vol. 2) with the inclusion of <i>Amelanchier</i> huronensis in <i>A. sanguinea</i>. The former was considered to differ from <i>A. sanguinea</i> in having longer proximalmost pedicels, sepals, and petals, but overlap occurs in the ranges of these characters. Moreover, <i>A. sanguinea</i> has been seen far from the range of A. huronensis (southern Ontario, Michigan, Minnesota, and Wisconsin) with petals as long as the longest reported for A. huronensis. Occurrences of <i>A. sanguinea</i> in Kentucky and North Dakota are questionable, as no specimens were actually seen to confirm the presence of this species from these states.</p><!--
--><p><i>Amelanchier sanguinea</i> has shorter petals than <i>A. amabilis</i>. <i>Amelanchier humilis</i> differs from <i>A. amabilis</i> and <i>A. sanguinea</i> in having shorter proximalmost pedicels, erect inflorescences, and shorter petals. <i>Amelanchier amabilis</i>, <i>A. sanguinea</i>, and, to a lesser extent, <i>A. humilis</i> resemble western North American congeners.</p><!--
--><p><i>Amelanchier sanguinea</i> flowers 10 to 14 days after <i>A. arborea</i> and <i>A. laevis</i>, according to K. M. Wiegand (1912), and at the same time as <i>A. amabilis</i>. Hybrids between <i>A. sanguinea</i> and <i>A. bartramiana</i>, <i>A. canadensis</i>, <i>A. laevis</i>, and <i>A. spicata</i> have been reported (M. L. Fernald 1950; P. Landry 1975). The authors have observed <i>A. sanguinea</i> flowering with <i>A. amabilis</i> but no putative hybrids were observed.</p>
