178 WILSON EXPEDITION TO CHINA 



Andersson says: "Est sine ullo dubio S. phylicifoliae v. S. arhusculae sat affinis." 

 The fruits are glabrous, and the pedicels are scarcely as long as the gland. This 

 little-known species is omitted by Herder (1891).

By S. mongolica (Franch.) I suppose Siuzev means S. phylicifolia Franchet in 

 Nouv. Arch. Mus. Paris, s^r. 2. VII. 93 (PI. David. I. 283) (1884), which is 

 a very uncertain plant. Not having seen the original pubhcation or any of the 

 specimens, I can only mention this species.

Salix tetrasperma, var. nobilis Andersson in Jour. Linn. Soc. IV. 42 (1860). 



INDIA. Nepal: without locahty, N. Wallich (in Herb. Hornemann, ex 

 Fries). 



So far as I can judge from the description this species may be a mixture of two 

 forms, the 9 plant belonging to a species like S. tetrasperma Roxburgh and the 9 

 plant to S. daphnoides, var. indica Andersson. The style is described as very long, 

 but not as bifid, as Hooker f. says, and the stigmas as linear and cleft.

INDIA. Garhwal, "in frigidis umbrosis et fertilibus a Bari ad Kounass, d. 

 14 Maji 1829," V. Jacquemont (No. 70*, type; 9, ex Andersson). 



Andersson never mentioned this doubtful Willow again, which apparently was 

 collected by Jacquemont on May 14, 1830, between Bfiri and Bounasse (see Voy. 

 Jour. II. 79 [1841]). In addition to his description Andersson refers to " S. glabres- 

 cens Lindley in Oude et Rohilcund 1825; WaUich (Cat. n. 3706)," of which I have 

 a photograph and some fruits and leaves before me. WalUch collected this number 

 in the Kootuhonnaut Forest, March 6, 1825, and in the Rampoor Forest, February 

 27, 1825. According to the shape of the gland of the glabrous long-pedicelled 

 capsules this Willow seems to belong to sect. Tetraspermae. But I have to confess, 

 as Andersson did, that I cannot " certum de iis judicium pronuntiare."

 dorff (No. 223, sterile tjrpe, ex Andersson and Herder); Petropavlowsk, Kastalsky 

 (ex Herder). 



Herder says that according to C. A. Meyer the type specimen belongs to S. 

 boganidensis Trautvetter & Meyer (see p. 125). Andersson (1867) describes the 

 leaves as "anguste Uneari-lanceolatis 3-4 (in 1868, 3-71) polUces longis vix K 

 poll, latis." This is a very doubtful form.
