From what little I know of plant biology/nomenclature, this plant shouldn't
exist as a distinct species. P

A 'species' refers to a group of plants that are reproductively isolated?

Pyracomeles = Pyracantha x Chaenomeles, but I can't be more specific.

a pretty small shrub w dainty lvs & clusters of sm.whi fls followed
by showy
coral-red frs.S/M "

The limited information I found is that there is one hybrid,
xPyracomeles
vilmorinii. The reference said it is a rare semi-evergreen shrub. It has
white
flowers but is sterile and produces no fruit. It would be interesting to
know
which species were the parents.
