We investigated both fine‐scale SGS and leaf shape variation in five Fagaceae species (Q. glauca, Q. multinervis, C. tibetana, C. faberi, and C. fargesii) from the genera Quercus and Castanopsis in Wuyishan National Park. We found that Quercus species exhibit stronger fine‐scale SGS than Castanopsis species.
