Betula celtiberica, the Iberian white birch, is a species of flowering plant in the family Betulaceae, native to Great Britain, northwestern Spain and Portugal.[3][2] In Spain is it often found on north-facing valley slopes, forming mixed mesic forests with the common beech Fagus sylvatica.[4] Some authors, particularly in Britain, treat it as a subspecies of Betula pubescens (downy birch), with the suggestion that it is a stabilised hybrid between that and Betula pendula (silver birch).[5]
