Talk:Quercus garryana

message: i would propose renaming this article to Garry oak with redirect from oregon white oak.  the literature uses Oregon oak prominently (see for example Pavlik "Oaks of California") as a designation and the existing article is devoid of references... User:Anlace
:Just for interest, here are some google search hits:
:*"oregon oak" "quercus garryana" - 459
:*"oregon white oak" "quercus garryana" - 18,100
:*"garry oak" "quercus garryana" - 11,000
:My personal favorite is Garry Oak, since that is the name I have always known it by growing up in Oregon. I would vote against the proposed rename.  -- WormRunner 00:30, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: thanks for your informative reply wormrunner.  i would favor a change to Garry oak.  among  other reasons the present term is misleading since the species occurs widely outside oregon.  i have about 200 of them in my yard in california :) what do you think? regards Anlace 01:09, 3 March 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I don't know, but a missing bit of information is how far inland these Oaks grow. I have seen them as far east as Brooks Memorial State Park in Washington, & they are ubiquitous along the eastern Columbia Gorge. -- llywrch (talk) 19:59, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: They do not grow in Baja, or even in SoCal.  They do grow on the east slope of the Cascades in both Washington and Oregon.  A lot of oak species grow in Mexico so there may be multiple oaks in Baja, just not this one.--Dog Walking Girl (talk) 05:05, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

message: This article, under Growth characteristics, mentions one gall wasp specifically, Cynips maculipennis. The Wikipedia article on Cynips lists 14 species, not including maculipennis. Bugguide.net (not always comprehensive) lists six species in the U.S. and Canada, not including maculipennis, and including only Cynips mirabilis, the speckled gall wasp, as found in Garry oak territory in the Pacific Northwest (Bug Guide and the Cynips article seem to be consistent). My guess is that C. maculipennis and C. mirabilis are the same species. I'd appreciate confirmation of that and learning which is the more authoritatively accepted name.
