|discussion=<p><i>Quercus gravesii</i> reportedly hybridizes with <i>Q. hypoleucoides</i>. As noted above, forms of <i>Q. gravesii</i> and <i>Q. robusta</i> are easily confused and give the impression of belonging to a single morphologic continuum.</p><!--
--><p>Some authors have also used the name <i>Quercus texana</i> for <i>Q. gravesii</i>.</p>
