Prunus erioclada is a species of wild almond native to Iran and Afghanistan.

It is a thorny shrub 0.2 to 1.2 m tall.

It is morphologically similar to Prunus lycioides, P. spinosissima, P. eburnea and P. brahuica.

It can be distinguished from the similar species by having its one year old twigs densely covered by a white pubescence, termed white tomentose, and the older twigs grayish-white tomentose.

A genetic and morphological analysis shows that it is a good species, with its closest relative being Prunus eburnea.
