wild plum (Prunus americana)
Model Reliability: Current Distribution Only
Current Distribution Only
The model reliability (ModRel) for wild plum was too low (< 0.14), therefore only the current Forest Inventory & Analysis distribution is shown.

Interpretation Guide
American plum is narrowly distributed (1.1% of area), sparse, low IV and rare species across parts of the central Midwest, with a very poor model restricting our ability to predict future habitat. We do, however, grade it with medium adaptability to deal with the changing climate.
Family: Rosaceae
Guild: fast-growing, short lived
Functional Lifeform: small deciduous tree
