Quercus rugosa Née – netleaf oak Subordinate Taxa. Climate variability coupled with anthropogenic … Interpreting Wetland Status. Quercus leucotrichophora A. Camus has a full, rounded canopy. Climate variability is one of the most powerful drivers that have resulted in loss of forest ecosystems. This plant has no children Legal Status. The leaves are alternate, elongated ovals with jagged teeth. Among all disturbance stands the density of banj oak Quercus leucotrichophora A. Camus individuals was peaked at 40–50 cm and 50–60 cm diameter at breast height (DBH) classes and low tree density was observed with the increasing DBH classes. Our observations suggested that Banj oak Quercus leucotrichophora was the dominant species (59.2%, N = 306) in the pool of sleeping trees used by the langurs. insigne Benth ext.is the least important of all the species with a density of .05 trees/100m² and an IVI of 1.59.In sapling stratum Quercus leucotrichophora is followed by Pinus 3 .

Abstract. Quercus leucotrichophora (A. Camus) (Banj oak) is a keystone tree in moist temperate forests of Central Himalayas. Starch from the seeds of Quercus leucotrichophora was isolated, purified and its physico‐chemical properties were determined.
