Quercus runcinatifolia is a species of oak endemic to northeastern Mexico.
Quercus runcinatifolia is endemic to the northern Sierra Madre Oriental in the state of Nuevo León south of the city of Monterrey, including the Cerro de la Silla. [1]
Its natural habitat is montane pine–oak forest. [1]
It forms sparse and scattered subpopulations within its range. Subpopulations are often made up of 10–15 mature individuals. [1]
