SALIX LASIANDRA Abramsi, n. var.—Leaves narrowly lanceolate, 
5-11 cm. long, 1-17 cm. wide, common sizes 6-7 X1, 7-8 X1-1.5, 
and g-11X1.5cm., margins shallowly serrulate to subentire; 
petioles short, 4-8-10 mm. long, thinly pubescent to glabrous, the 
glands of the distal upper surface small and inconspicuous or 
wanting; aments short, usually 2-3, sometimes 4.cm. long; cap- 
sules 5.5-7 mm. long; pedicels 1-1.5 mm. long. 
This variety is named for Professor LERoy Asrams, of the Department of 
Botany of Stanford University, California, well known for his contributions 
to Pacific Coast botany and collector of the type specimen, his no. 4493, “near 
Sentinel Hotel, Yosemite Valley, Yosemite National Park, alt. 4000-4500 ft.,” 
on June 23, 1911. It differs from the species chiefly in the smaller and nar- 
rower, less serrulate leaves, and the nearly eglandular petioles. It seems to 
be limited in its distribution to the Sierra Nevada of central eastern California, © 
from Plumas County, south to Fresno County. Nearly all the specimens 
collected by Duprey in Nevada and El Dorado counties are immature and 
not identifiable with absolute certainty.
