Quercus tardifolia
Also called Chisos Mountains Oak
Quercus tardifolia, the Chisos Mountains oak or lateleaf oak, is a rare North American species of oak. It has been found in the Chisos Mountains inside Big Bend National Park in Texas, and in the nearby Sierra del Carmen across the Río Grande in northern Coahuila.
Quercus tardifolia is an evergreen tree with gray bark and reddish-brown twigs. The leaves are flat, up to 10 centimetres (4 inches) long, green on the upper surface and with woolly hairs on the underside, with a few shallow lobes.
