* London plane tree (Platanus × acerifolia): This is the most common type of plane tree, a hybrid between the American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) and the Oriental plane (Platanus orientalis).
* American sycamore (Platanus occidentalis): This is a native North American species with a large, spreading canopy.
* Oriental plane (Platanus orientalis): This species is native to southeastern Europe and western Asia.
So, while there is no single tree species named "plane," the term is used to describe several closely related tree species, especially the hybrid London plane tree.
