Default Ancient Greek word for silver birch

Could someone please post the ancient Greek word for the silver birch, or
provide a suitable reference.

I have checked Theophrastos but there is no listing for the tree. This is
most odd because he grew up in the region where the silver birch grew.

And Pliny only provides the Latin name Betula.

Thanks in advance.
