Ulmus wallichiana
''Ulmus wallichiana'' Planch., the Himalayan elm, also known as the Kashmir elm, is a mountain tree ranging from central Nuristan in Afghanistan, through northern Pakistan and northern India to western Nepal at elevations of 800–3000 m. Although dissimilar in appearance, its common name is occasionally used in error for the Cherry Bark Elm ''Ulmus villosa'', which is also endemic to the Kashmir, but inhabits the valleys, not the mountain slopes. The species is closely related to the Wych Elm ''U. glabra''.
==Description==
The Himalayan Elm grows to 30 m tall, with a broad crown featuring several ascending branches. The bark of the trunk is greyish brown and longitudinally furrowed. The leaves are elliptic-acuminate, < 13 cm long by 6 cm broad on petioles 5–10 mm long. The samarae are usually orbicular, < 13 mm in diameter.〔Melville, R. & Heybroek, H. (1971).
