I propose changing the common name for this species to Nuttall's oak and Texas red oak. These are the accepted common names on well respected sites such as Flora of North America Flora, USDA Plant Profiles, and Trees of North America. According to those sources, the common name Buckley's oak (currently used in this article) applies to Quercus buckleyi (See: Flora of North America, USDA Plant Profiles, and Trees of North America. Personally, I do not like the common name Texas red oak for current-day Q. texana, since this species occurs mostly to the east of Texas and that common name was only adopted because of the Q. texana/Q. buckleyi misidentification. But I also concede that it is important to have the Wikipedia article agree with the current-day literature. And yes, the Q. buckleyi page should also be revised based on this discussion.

Does Quercus texana Buckley really occur in North Carolina as commonly as was indicated in the added reference, or is this a misidentification and/or referring to some other species, like Quercus palustris? see page in the reference: G. Pinchot & W. W. Ashe's 1891 " Timber trees and forests of North Carolina". For Q. texana, there is a single county near the east coast on BONAP, nothing on USDA PLANTS, and nothing in FNA. — Hyperik ⌜ talk⌟ 22:16, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
