Quercus mulleri is a rare Mexican species of oak. It has been found only in a small area of the Sierra de Miahuatlán, a sub-range of the Sierra Madre del Sur in southern Oaxaca state.
Quercus mulleri is currently known from a single small population in Miahuatlán District of southern Oaxaca. Here it is found in montane conifer–oak forest on rugged terrain at approximately 1850 meters elevation. The population is estimated at 138 mature individuals, and the species' extent of occurrence (EOO) and area of occupancy (AOO) are both estimated at 4 km2, but may be much smaller, as the known population consists of two patches of trees covering several acres. It was described in 1953 from two other locations, but is no longer found there.
