SALICACEAE. — SALIX 119 
sent to me by Mgr. Léveillé. The flowers have two glands and the species very 
much resembles S. dyscrita Schneider. The bracts of S. erioclada, however, are more 
oblong, the filaments are very slightly hairy at the base, and the young leaves have 
a different nervation, the lateral nerves being more numerous, about 10 in a leaf 
of 1.8 cm. in length, while a leaf of the same size of S. dyscrita Schneider has only 
about 5 or 6. As long as it is impossible to compare better material with fully 
grown leaves, I prefer not to unite these two forms, which are geographically well 
Separated. 
Léveillé (in litt. 1915) says that under the two names S. erioclada and S. pachy- 
clada (see p. 150) “ se cachent certainement plusieurs espèces.”

Through the kindness of the author, I have received a c? and a catkin of this 
Species the original description of which I have not been able to consult. The fol- 
lowing is the description of what I have seen: : 
Ramuli?. Folia juvenilia elliptica, utrinque subobtusa, in sicco nigrescentia, supra 
costa albo-villosa subincisa excepta glabra, venis vix visibilibus, subtus glauces- 
centia, costa elevata facieque sparse v. distinctius adpresse sericea v. costa sericeo- 
villosula, nervis paullo elevatis pro 2.5 em. circiter 8, margine minute et indistincte 
adpresse glanduloso-denticulata, ad 2.5 em. longa et 1.1 em. lata; petioli circiter 
2-4 mm. longi, dense albo-cani. Amenta ut videtur subcoetanea, subsessilia, basi 
foliolis 1-3 parvis subtus sericeis suffulta, cylindrica, rhachi villosula, c ad 5.5 em. 
longa, circiter 0.7 cm. crassa, 9 (florifera) ad 3.5 cm. longa, circiter 0.6 cm. crassa; 
flores q diandri, filamentis glabris liberis quam bracteer 4-5-plo longioribus, 
antheris parvis flavis subglobosis; glandulae 2, ventralis oblonga, apice incísa, 
bractea paullo brevior, dorsalis parva, tenuia, ventrali minor; bracteae parvae, 
ovato-rotundae, concavae, flavo-brunnescentes, margine et basi villosae, ceterum 
plus minusve glabrae; ovaria sessilia v. subsessilia, ovata, stylo parvo sed distincto 
Satis crasso apice bifido stigmatibus minimis emarginatis coronata; glandula una 
Ventralis, bractea fere duplo brevior, oblonga, angusta; bracteae late ovatae, 
obtusae, iis lorum g non absimiles, pleraeque tantum basi utrinque villosae. : 
. This species seems nearly related to S. erioclada Léveillé, p. 118, which chiefly 
differs in its longer oblong bracts. The <* catkins and young leaves look very much 
alike, but the latter seem to be entire in S. erioclada. S. dyscrita Schneider also 
much resembles the c plant of S. Camusii, but in S. dyscrita the filaments are 
Very hairy at the base, and the young entire leaves show fewer pairs of lateral 
nerves. Unfortunately, the 2 sex neither of S. dyscrita Schneider nor of S. erioclada 
Léveillé is known.

According to the two glands in the c? flower, this species belongs to sect. Denti- 
datae. The 9 flowers have a rather long style bifid at the apex with very small 
stigmas. Old leaves are unknown. See the key, pp. 77 and 78.
