II 'attr-oak. A species of the lowlands of the southeastern part of the State. 

 A large, valuable tree, bearing a close resemblance to the shingle-oak; Is found 

 in Butler and Dunklin counties, and has been reported from Greene county, but 

 this must be a mistake in determination. 



59. Quercas coceinea Wang. 



ScarUt-oak What I take to be this species has been found in Jackson and 

 Shannon counties. There seems to be some doubt about its occurrence in our 

 borders, although Sargent cites specimens as coming from the northeastern part 

 of the State. It has also been reported from St. Louts, but that may have been the 

 Texas red oak. which is common there, and is commonly mistaken for this specieB. 



\>'ierous digitata (Marsh.) Suriw. 

 Spat,Uh oak. A large tree of the lowlands of the southeastern part of tie 

 State, or little economic importance. Grows in Butler, Dunklin, New Mi 

 Ripley and Wavne counties. Has been reported from Adair and Living 

 counties by Broadhead, but it tely this lowland species should be found 



»o far north. AMo reported from St. Louis county, but this, too, is doubtrul, as. 

 the suitable habitat for it is not there. This Is Q-itreua falcata Michx.
