Prunus dictyoneura (Chinese: 毛叶欧李) is a species of bush cherry found in Gansu, Hebei, Henan, Jiangsu, Ningxia, Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces of China. A shrub 0.3 to 1.0 (occasionally 2.0) m tall, it prefers to grow in thickets in grasslands on hillsides from 400 to 1600 (occasionally 2,300) m above sea level. Chloroplast DNA sequencing has shown that its closest relative is Prunus humilis, at least as far as chloroplasts are concerned.
