Prunus salasii, called carretero, carreto, cerezo, cereza or cereza montés in Guatemala, and sapoyolillo or zapoyolillo in Mexico, is a species of Prunus in the family Rosaceae.

It is native to Chiapas in Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras and El Salvador.

A fast-growing tree usually 9-15 m, but reaching 35 m, it is planted in Guatemalan ranches and parks as a shade tree.
