Quercus aurea Wierzb.

Full name:

Quercus aurea Wierzb., Exsicc. (Wierzbicki) 1835: s.n. (1835) is an accepted name.

Infrageneric Classification:

Subgenus Quercus, Section Quercus

Nomenclature Note:

This is considered the accepted name for Q. dalechampii auct. Di Pietro et al. (2012) solved the problem of an inconsistent application of the name Q. dalechampii Ten. by designating a lectotype which explicitly belongs to the Q. pubescens Willd. group. The name Q. dalechampii Ten. is therefore no longer applicable to the Central European populations it was used to designate.

Natural Distribution:

EUROPE: Albania, Austria, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Romania, Sardegna, Sicilia, Yugoslavia
