Scientific Note: Quercus sinuata Walter—the Hybrid of Q. falcata and Q. phellos—Rediscovered and Neotypified

More likely, the great majority of his observations came from his own lands (4500 acres in 1789 - Rembert 1980), including the Santee riverbottom rice fields, the route to and from his second home in Pineville (13 km. east), to which he and his family retreated each summer during the malaria season, and occasional trips to his market in Charleston (80 km. south), either transporting his grain by road or on special occasions by boat down the Santee and along the Carolina coast.\n The observed individuals unquestionably were not seen by him; the largest hybrid could scarcely be half the age required to reach Walter's century.
