Description
Quercus salicifolia is a tree up to 25 meters tall, with a trunk up to 100 cm in diameter. Leaves narrowly lance-shaped, up to 20 cm long, with no teeth or lobes.[3][7]
The epithet "salicifolia" means "willow-leaved" alluding to the resemblance between the leaves of Q salicifolia and those of several species of Salix.
