Quercus copeyensis is a species of oak endemic to the Talamancan montane forests of Costa Rica and Panama.[2] It is commonly called Panamanian oak.
Quercus copeyensis is a large deciduous tree up to 35 metres (115 feet) tall with a trunk frequently more than 100 centimetres (39 inches) in diameter. The leaves are often clustered at the ends of branches, with blades up to 15 centimetres (6 inches) long.[3][4]
It is often found with Quercus costaricensis in upper montane forests, up to 3,100 m (10,200 ft) in elevation.
