Crataegus songarica is a species of flowering plant in the family Rosaceae.[2][4] It is an Asian hawthorn with black fruit that is sometimes used medicinally. It is closely related to Crataegus ambigua,[3] a species that has red fruit.

The native range of the species covers much of Central Asia and Xinjiang.[3] It grows on limestone or granite, at elevations of 800–2700 m.[3]
