Quercus brantii, Brant's oak,[4] is a species of oak native to Western Asia, mainly in Iran, Iraq, Syria, and Turkey.[5][6]

A shrub or small tree, Quercus brantii grows to between 6 and 15 meters tall, and has serrated leaves with 5-14 teeth per side.[7]

Quercus brantii (covering more than 50% of the Zagros Mountains forest steppe ecoregion) is the most important tree species of the Zagros Mountains in Iran.[8] It grows in soils derived from limestone at altitudes up to 2200 meters above sea level, and forms communities with other oaks, as well as Pinus brutia, Styrax officinalis, and Paliurus spina-christi.[7]

Iranians use its seed in traditional medicine. Other useful products derived from oaks include fuel wood, charcoal and timber hardwood.[9]
