About Quercus crispipilis Trel.
Quercus crispipilis Trel. is a medium-sized tree that reaches up to 27 meters in height at maturity, with a trunk diameter between 30 and 60 centimeters. This tree is most commonly found in cloud forests, and also grows in humid oak forests and oak–pine forests, at elevations ranging from 750 to 2,700 meters. It occurs in closed-canopy forests, and regenerates successfully in forest clearings and abandoned agricultural fields. It is native to three regions: the Chiapas Highlands of central Chiapas, the Sierra Madre de Chiapas spanning Chiapas and Guatemala, and the Guatemalan Highlands of central Guatemala.
