Juniperus deltoides (syn. Juniperus oxycedrus subsp. deltoides), the Eastern prickly juniper, is a species of juniper native to the eastern Mediterranean.[1] Although it is sometimes considered a subspecies of Juniperus oxycedrus,[2] phylogenetic studies have found the two are not closely related.[3][4][5][6][7]
