Sideroxylon mirmulano, commonly known as marmulano, is a species of flowering plants in the family Sapotaceae.
Its flowers are whitish rose to purple with 5 petals measuring up to 7 mm (0.28 in).
It is the dominant species in low coastal forests along the northern shore of Madeira from 0 to 80 m (0 to 262 ft) elevation, and in pockets on the southern side of the island between 200 and 300 meters elevation.
It is commonly found with the shrubs Maytenus umbellata and Globularia salicina.
