Pistacia mexicana, also known as Mexican pistache, American pistachio [3] or wild pistachio [2] is a species of plant in the family Anacardiaceae found in Guatemala, Mexico, and the United States ( Texas). It is threatened by habitat loss. [1]

Although goats browse the plant's leaves, the species is largely unimportant as a food source as the small seeds are often empty. [2]
