    Cultivar Acer japonicum 'Attaryi' is another well known maple. The synonym here is Aconitifolium USA. (MOW).
    Edit 1, after receiving a PM a few minutes ago from J, I am adding that Aconitifolium UK may well be different to the US cultivar 'Attaryi'. So anyone not in the US should take note.

    My synonym list is complete 'for now', but as and when I receive new information I will add to this thread. I have stuck to Acer palmatum, shirasawanum and japonicum, as this is what has been requested by members via PM's.
    All information has come from World Checklist Of Maple Cultivar Names, Maples of the World, Vertrees 4th Edition and Book for Maples (Yano).
    I hope this thread will help members when they come accross a maple name they haven't heard of before and and can cross ref it for a synonym or a similar to.
    Any other information has come direct from members, and I thank them for their contribution either on here or by PM's direct to me.

    Fareham, Hampshire. Hi UK
    I’d like to say a big thank you to Derek for undertaking this task.
    Miss naming, miss spelling and synonyms are a real issue for any collector.

    Another that has come to light over the past couple of days from a member is that of Acer palmatum 'Pink Passion'. Now this one has been described as brighter pink than Acer palmatum 'Shirazz', but of a similar variegation. So I will add it to the list as 'similar to' at this time.

    This one is from me, Acer shirasawanum 'Yasemin' that is very similar to shirasawanum Gloria. I compared it to a friends tree and tbh I could not tell the difference.
