Hello, Welcome to Project Noah! The American sweet gum's "Scientific name" is Liquidambar styraciflua. You can add that to your spotting in the space provided (choose "edit this spotting"). See the reference link I've added to http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/7168679. I've also moved your spotting from "other" to plants. Cheers
