This noble Oak has been so well described by Sir J. E. Smith in Rees's Cyclopædia, that I have very little to add in 
this place. “The young branches are thick, eylindric, and glaucous. Buds terminal, fascicled, or axillary and solitary 
ovate, obtuse, with many rounded, villous and silky scales. Leaves very handsome, of a firm and leathery minde 
sometimes a foot long, and as much as five inches broad, smooth and glossy above, more or less mealy, Fonte 
nearly white underneath. “The fruit is remarkably large, as much as two inches in diameter. 
The drawings from whence the engravings of this and the following species have been taken, were made by Mons. 
M. Gauci, whose extremely courteous and able services connected with the graphic part of this work I acknowledge 
with very great pleasure.
