Pyrus × michauxii (Turkish: som ahlat ) is an interspecific hybrid species of pear in the family Rosaceae. It is the result of a hybridisation involving P. communis, P. elaeagrifolia and P. spinosa, and is endemic to Turkey.

The branches, leaves, and fruit have been analyzed for the presence of arbutin, phenolics, flavonoids, and antioxidant activity, as well as phytochemical, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and antifungal activity.
