Quercus fabri Hance

Full name:

Quercus fabri Hance, (1869) is an accepted name.

Infrageneric Classification:

Subgenus Quercus, Section Quercus

Nomenclature Note:

The epithet commemorates the collector Dr C. Fabre-Tonnerre (original protologue and Bretschneider, 1898) and is a latinization of Fabre, the French equivalent of "faber", itself the Latin word meaning "maker". This spelling is to be used under ICBN Art. 60.7 and Rec. 60C.2 and not the original "fabrei" under the provisions of Art. 60.1 & 60.11 as is seen to be done in some publications such as the World Checklist and Bibliography of Fagales (1998).
