1860); “ in India orientali superiori" V. Jacquemont & G. S. Perrotet (9 type of 
S. myricaefolia, ex Andersson). 
See also my remarks under S. fruticulosa Andersson (p. 119). 
S. myricaefolia certainly is closely related to S. orycarpa Andersson, which has 
the same silky ovaries, and to S. pycnostachya Andersson, which has the same ob- 
tusish and entire leaves, but it differs from both in its much shorter catkins. Of 
the # flowers I have not seen sufficient material.

The type of this section, Saliz caesia Villars (Pl. Dauph. III. 768 [1789]) (see 
Seemen in Ascherson & Graebner, Syn. Mitteleur. Fl. IV. 198 [1908]) does not 
occur in Asia. The two following species are kept distinct by Wolf.
