Black haw shrub

English to Spanish Medical Botany Medicinal Plants
Hola compañeros,

Tengo una traducción que involucra a esta planta. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viburnum_prunifolium
Su nombre común es "Black haw shrub", el problema es que no encuentro una equivalencia en español, ¿alguno de ustedes conoce esta planta por algún nombre común en español?
Les dejo el contexto que voy a traducir:

Black haw shrub Viburnum prunifolium
This deciduous shrub is native to the American woodlands. The bark of the branches and roots
contains many active compounds, including coumarin and salicin that have anticoagulant and
aspirin-like qualities, respectively. The plant’s medicinal use is mainly related to its strong antispasmodic
properties. Native Americans used it to abate heavy or painful menstrual bleeding and
threatened miscarriage. It was also used for cramping conditions of the intestine, bile ducts, and
bladder. As a smooth muscle relaxant, it may help in asthma and hypertension by opening
airways and peripheral blood vessels.
America Bark, Root bark


Gracias y saludos

agree DLyons : Yes, I was leaving that to Lorena. A lot of the sources are feeding off each other but it's still the best-attested version.

Thanks, Donal! Yes, I probably should have left it to her; she often does this and I usually hold back and tell her to post the answer.

viburno blackhaw

Some sites suggest "espino albar", but they don't seem very reliable so the above is safer if you really, really don't want to use Viburnum prunifolium.

It may be called "Chuguacá" in Colombia but that looks more like a species name to me.
