    Schinus terebinthifolius is green with broader leaflets, and Schinus molle glaucous, with slender leaflets and more pendulous foliage.

    Their English names (Brazilian Peppertree and Peruvian Peppertree, respectively) might be more familiar? Both are invasive weeds in warm temperate / subtropical areas outside of their native ranges in South America.
