{{Inc|
Quercus bicolor, Willd. (Q. platanoides, Sudw. Q. Prinus var. tomentosa, Michx. Q. Prinus var. discolor, Michx. f.). Swamp White Oak. Fig. 3306. Tree, to 70 ft., rarely to 100 ft., with narrow, round-topped, open head and light grayish brown, scaly bark: lvs. obovate to oblong-obovate, sinuately dentate, sometimes lobed half-way to the middle, dark green and dull above, whitish tomentulose beneath, 4-7 in. long: fr. solitary or in pairs, on peduncles 1 1/2-4 in. long; acorn ovate oblong, 1-1 1/2 in. high, embraced one-third by the cup. Que. to Ga., west to Mich. and Ark. S.S. 8:380, 381. Em. 1:153. G.F. 4:246.—It is less desirable as an ornamental tree than many other species, but the wood is valuable. By the light gray bark separating in large thin scales and the numerous small branches which appear on the larger limbs and often on the trunk, it is easily distinguished from allied species.
