What is a "camichine?" (maybe a tree?)

Question

I see signs all the time pointing to a community called Las Camichines. What is a camichine? If it is a tree (my guess), what is the genus and species? Is there anything like it in English?

Thanks,

Sharon

Answer 1

I think it´s Las Camichinas (Jilotlán de los Dolores, Jalisco)

camichin ---> Ficus pandifolia

Does this tree bear sour-tasting fruits? If it does, then it could be what I thought it was. - Deanski, Jan 25, 2011

Answer 2

I am familiar with camachile/kamatsile (is it even Spanish word?) but I seriously doubt it is what Las Camachines is.

Answer 3

Camichines is a town in the State of Jalisco, México. [link text][1]
