Morus taxonomy is complicated and under dispute. Just 10–16 species of the many named are generally accepted, though there are different groups accepting different names. Large amounts of hybridization has also complicate their classification, with generally fertile hybrids.

These species are generally accepted:

  • Morus alba (White Mulberry; eastern Asia)
  • Morus australis (Chinese Mulberry; southeastern Asia)
  • Morus celtidifolia (Mexico)
  • Morus insignis (South America)

  • Morus cathayana
  • Morus indica (M. alba)

  • Morus latifolia (M. alba)
  • Morus liboensis
