Texas Red Oak
''Quercus buckleyi'', commonly known as Texas red oak or Buckley's oak, is a species of flowering plant. It is endemic to the southern Great Plains of the United States (Oklahoma and Texas). Buckley's oak is smaller and more likely to be multitrunked than its close relative, the Shumard oak (''Q. shumardii''). The two species are interfertile, and hybrids are common along a line from Dallas to San Antonio, Texas. Texas red oak usually is tall at maturity, and seldom reaches a height of more than . ''Quercus buckleyi'' was formerly known as ''Q. texana'', but under botanical rules of priority, that name properly refers to Nuttall's oak. This has led to much confusion.Dorr, L. J. & K. C.

Quercus Texana
''Quercus texana'', commonly known as Nuttall's oak, is a fast-growing, large deciduous oak tree. It is a tree growing up to 25 meters (83 feet) tall, with dark brown bark. It has leaves with sharp pointed lobes somewhat similar to those of the Georgia oak (''Q. georgiana'') and pin oak (''Q. palustris''). It is fast-growing and usually has a pleasing red color in autumn, much more reliably so than the pin oak. This species was for years erroneously called ''Quercus nuttallii'', but it is now known as ''Q. texana''; this has created much confusion with Texas red oak, which was known as ''Q. texana'' but is now known as ''Q. buckleyi''. It is native to the south-central United States primarily in the lower Mississippi River Valley in Louisiana, Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama, and western Tennessee. There are additional populations in eastern Texas, southeastern Oklahoma, southeastern Missouri, far western Kentucky, and the southernmost tip of Illinois ...
