diameter ; bracts obovate, obtuse, fuscous, villous-ciliate ; cap- 
sule acuminate-conic, glabrous; style about .5 mm. long. 
It is nearest related to S. ovalfolia, from which it differs 
mainly in the broad leaves. Specimens: 
ALaAskA: St. Paul’s Island, 1897, /. AL. Macoun (16645, 
Type); 1896 (78887); 1891 (78877); Cape Vancouver 
(78878); Hall’s Island (78876).

It is characterized by its oval reticulate leaves, glabrous 
capsules, and short style. The following specimens have 
been examined : 
AxLasKA: St. Paul Island, 1897, J. AL. Alacoun (16644) ; 
1874, rs. JWJacintyre; Point Barrow, Prof. Alurdock. 
24. SALIX PHLEBOPHYLL.A Anders. Oefv. Vet. Akad. Foerh. 
15: 132 and Proc. Am. Acad. 4: 27. (Both 1858.) 
This resembles S. ovalzfola in many respects, but the 
leaves are thin and not strongly reticulated, the catkins are 
longer, about 2 cm. long, the style is about 1 mm. long, and 
the capsule somewhat puberulent when young. I refer the fol- 
lowing specimens here: 
Arctic Coast: (Herb. Hook., Barratt & Torr., no. 96; 
type). 
Axaska: Cape Blossom, 1884, S. 2B. J1/.; St. Paul Is- 
land, 1879, frobert White.

I take the following specimens to belong to this species. 
The original description is rather meagre and it is hard to 
tell what the species really is. The specimens before me 
have thin glabrous leaves, with a broadly obovate blade 2~3 
cm. long, on a petiole of about the same length. The cat- 
kins are rather loose, with the peduncle 3-4 cm. long. The 
capsule is glabrous, about 6 mm. long and with a style fully 
1.5 mm. long. The specimens were labeled Sa//x ovalifolia,
