- ^ 10. Salix launna. 



Shining dark- green Willow. 



S. foliis elllptids acutis denticulato-ferratis glabriufculis fubtus 

 glaucis, germinibus pedicellatis lanceolatis fericeis. ' " 



In falicetis et paluftribus. D. Dlckfon, Fl. Apriii, Maio. 



Very nearly related to the lad, but certainly a diftind fpecies. It 

 tfiyitially differs in the male catkins, which are but half the fize of 

 thofe lafl: defcribcd, and their ftamina are fhorter, perfe6tly fmooth, 

 not hairy at their bafe. The leaves alfo are of a brighter green, 

 their margin inclined to be revolute, and rather toothed than ere?, 

 nate. The germen alfo is fhorter, blunter, and lefs tapering. 



Neither of thefe Willows is known to be of any particular 

 ufe. Their branches are not endued with- much flexibility or 

 toughnefs. ,. 



II, Salix petiolaris. 



Dark iong-leaved Willow, 



S, foUis lanceolatis ferratis glabris fubtus glaucis, germinibus pedicel- 

 latis ovatls fericeis, fti2:matibus fefiilibus bilobis. 



In fahcetis et paluftribus. D, Dick/on, Fl. Apriii. 



This fpecies has not been found wild in Norfolk, but was fent 

 to Mr. Crowe by Mr. Dickfon, along with the laft, as of Britifh 

 growth. It has moft affinity with the two preceding fpecies, but 

 has longer and more flendcr twigs. The leaves are 4 or 5 inches 

 Icng, about an inch broad, lanceolate, pointed, ferratcd, fomewh^t 

 revolute, generally a little unequal at the bafe; bright- green, 

 fmooth and (hining above; glaucous beneath, and fpmetimes a little 



hair}^
