Anadyr, June 7 and 14, 1869, K. Maydell (ex Herder). 
Not having seen a specimen of this species from our area, I do not know if it is 
really found so far east. According to Camus, Classif. Saul. Europe, I. 123 (1904), 
it has stomata on the upper surfaces of the leaves.

CHINA. Chili: Hsiao Wutai-shan, mountain slopes, alt. 1700-3000 m., Au- 
gust 8, 1913, F. N. Meyer (No. 1160, type; with fruits). : 
his species much resembles some forms of S. formosa Willdenow from the Altai, 
but it can be distinguished from that species by its very closely serrate leaves, by 
its short petioles and by its rather acute bracts. I have seen only one old fruiting 
catkin. It may be nearly related to S. kolymensis Seemen, of which I have not seen 
& specimen. 
The specific name is derived from xapaxrés, with teeth.

June 8 [21] and 11[24] 1905, Roznovski (ex von Seemen). : 
e leaves of this species are described as sometimes entire and darker green 
above; the length of the petioles is not given by the author who saw only young 
leaves. The ovaries are wholly pubescent and seem to have longer pedicels.
