A new species, Quercussontraensis Ngoc, Binh & Son is described from Son Tra Nature Reserve, Son Tra Peninsula, Central Vietnam. We examined the morphology and constructed a highly resolved phylogeny of Q.sontraensis and its relatives (including Q.langbianensis and Q.cambodiensis ) using Multiplex ISSR genotyping by sequencing (MIG-seq). The morphological analyses and molecular evidence support the distinction between the new species ( Q.sontraensis ) and its relatives.
