Sycamore is a name which has been applied to several types of trees, but with somewhat similar leaf forms. The name derives from the ancient Greek σῡκόμορος (sykómoros) meaning "fig-mulberry".
Species of otherwise unrelated trees known as sycamore:
Acer pseudoplatanus, a species of maple native to central Europe and southwestern Asia
Ficus sycomorus, the sycamore (or sycomore) of the Bible; a species of fig, also called the sycamore fig or fig-mulberry, native to the Middle East and eastern Africa
