Acer pseudoplatanus, commonly known as sycamore in many parts of Europe, sycamore maple in North America (to distinguish it from Platanus occidentalis, which is also called sycamore), and Plane in Scotland. It is one of the most common maples in Europe, native to central Europe from France east to Poland, and south in the mountains to northern Spain and Turkey. Sycamores now occur throughout the British Isles, having been introduced in the 17th century.
