usually, Q. pyrenaica is dominant ; twigs are pubescent; buds 4-8 mm, tomentose; leaves tomentose beneath, at least along veins, with petiole tomentose; acorn with peduncle 1-3 cm, tomentose;

= desmotricha O.Schwarz 1936
leaves semi-evergreen, 9-11 cm long, lobed, with 7-8 vein pairs, white tomentose beneath when young, pubescent above with stellate hairs; petiole 2 cm long;
Spain.
-- For Govaerts & Frodin, it is a synonym of Q. cerrioides, but these Authors are in disagreement with A. Camus and O. Schwarz (among others) who feel that Q. cerrioides is a hybrid between Q. faginea and Q. pubescens.
-- For today's Spanish specialists in hybrid oaks in Spain (Alexis Rosell), Q. x anselmii is more exactly the hybrid between Q. cerrioides and Q. canariensis var. ovata; therefore it differs from the closely related Q. desmotricha (= canariensis var. carpinifolia x pubescens).
