In Turkey certainly native at least in Outer and S.E. Anatolia. P. hybrida Brot., Fl. Lusit. 2:487 (1804) (Syn: P. acerifolia(Alton) Willd.), the London Plane, is commonly planted as a street tree in the Istanbul area. It is distinguished by its less deeply divided leaves, the middle lobe nearly as broad as long, longer fruiting heads 2(-3) together, and bark which exfoliates in large flakes on older trunks. It is either a hybrid between P. orientalis and P. occidentalis L. or a cultivar of the first (Fl. Europaea 1:384, 1964).
