Quercus tuitensis

Quercus tuitensis is a small to medium-sized deciduous tree, growing 8 to 10 meters high, and occasionally to 15 meters high. Its trunk grows to 25-30 cm in diameter, and occasionally up to 60 cm.^[1]

Quercus tuitensis is known only from the Sierra el Tuito mountains in Talpa de Allende municipality, southeast of Puerto Vallarta.^[1]

Its habitat is open, and generally drier, oak or oak–pine forests from 980 to 1400 meters elevation, above the lower-elevation tropical dry subdeciduous forests. It is found in seasonally-humid canyons (barrancas), typically on deep well-drained granitic and ferruginous soils.^[1]
