Quercus coffeicolor is a species of oak. It is native to Nayarit, Sinaloa, and Jalisco in western Mexico. [4] [1]

Contents

Trelease in 1924 [5] simultaneously published three names for what nearly all present-day botanists consider to be one species. Some publications have referred to this taxon as Quercus prainiana [4] but this name turns out to have been used earlier, in 1913, [6] applied to an Asian species now called Quercus helferiana . Hence this name is not available for the Mexican trees. Instead, more recent authors been using one of Trelease's other names, Quercus coffeicolor. [3]

The species is placed in section Lobatae. [7]

Description

Quercus coffeicolor is a tree up to 12 metres (39 feet) tall, with a trunk up to 30 centimetres (12 inches) in diameter. The leaves are elliptical, up to 12 cm long, wavy edges but no teeth or lobes. [4]
