Quercus gravesii reportedly hybridizes with Q. hypoleucoides. As noted above, forms of Q. gravesii and Q. robusta are easily confused and give the impression of belonging to a single morphologic continuum. Some authors have also used the name Quercus texana for Q. gravesii. (Discussion copyrighted by Flora of North America; reprinted with permission.) |
