Quercus velutina (Latin 'velutina', "velvety") , the black oak, is a species of oak in the red oak group (Quercus sect. Lobatae), native and widespread in eastern and central North America. It is sometimes called the eastern black oak.
Quercus velutina was previously known as yellow oak due to the yellow pigment in its inner bark.
