In addition to consulting the descriptions, I have, when pos- 

 sible, compared our specimens with the examples published by 

 several salicologists, and more especially by Wimmer. For an 

 opportunity of doing so with great convenience, I am much 

 indebted to the kindness of Mr. C. Bailey, who lent me bis 

 extensive collection of Willows, which includes, in addition to 

 Wimmer's ' Collectio Salicum Europsearum/ many examples pub- 

 lished by A. and J. Kerner, Reichenbach, &c. 



Other specimens examined include Linne's own herbarium, 

 belonging to the Linnean Society * ; Smith's, also in the posses- 

 sion of that Society ; some specimens of Smith's attached, witn 

 notes, to the original drawings for ' English Botany/ pre- 

 served at the British Museum : the British Museum and Kew

Besides the specimens just mentioned, I have examined in a 

 living condition several thousand examples, either collected by 

 myself, or sent to me by friends and correspondents, to whose 

 kind services I am much indebted, and whose names are men- 

 tioned under the specie* of which they have provided me with 

 much-needed specimens, either living or dried,
