一種生長緩慢的小型落葉樹，似灌木，高度可達10公尺，葉緣呈深陷鋸齒狀，葉形三至七裂，分裂之葉面細長，櫟實需18個月方能成熟。原生於美國東南部的乾燥沙地，主要分布於德拉瓦州至佛羅里達州及路易斯安那州一帶的沿海平原。易與南方紅櫟（或稱西班牙櫟）、藍葉橡、月桂葉櫟和水櫟混種繁殖。其俗名「火雞櫟」（turkey oak）可能因其葉形似火雞爪印，或因野火雞食用其櫟實而得名。

美洲土耳其櫟(木材)

英文....

Species of small, slow-growing deciduous shrubby tree native to the dry, sandy areas of the southeastern United States, on the coastal plain from Delaware to Florida and Louisiana. It reaches 10 meters in height, has deeply incised leaves with 3-7 slender lobes, and acorns that take 18 months to mature. It hybridizes easily with southern red oak (Q. falcata), bluejack oak (Q. incana), laurel oak (Q. laurifolia), and water oak (Q. nigra). Its name "turkey oak" is derived either from the turkey-footprint shape of its leaves or from the fact that wild turkeys eat the acorns.
