Answer:

Quercus suber

Explanation:

Quercus suber, commonly called as the cork oak, is a medium-sized, evergreen oak tree. It is the primary source of cork for wine bottle stoppers and other uses, such as cork flooring. It is native to southwest Europe and northwest Africa. The thick bark of the cork oak has been harvested for thousands of years, and was used to make Roman sandals. Today, it is most commonly known for its use in wine bottle corks. The commercial cork is not obtained from Calotropis, pine and peepal.
