| ocrnotes: | "The very variable series of hybrids which ,5". viminalis forms with the Caprem are so inseparably connected, that N. J. Andersson has placed them all, with the exception of S. stipularis, Sm., under S. Smithiana, Willd. I do not see, however, how S. stipularis can be retained as distinct, and consider it as the one of the Smithiana series which is nearest to S. viminalis; S. acuminata, on the other hand, being the most remote. In this group specimens rather than forms have been described, and the names given have been variously applied. Thus four more or less distinct forms have been called ' S. acuminata,' and the true S. acuminata has had two other names given to it. The varieties of S. Smithiana pass one into the other, and it is often impossible to refer a specimen to one variety more than to another. The best marks of distinction are to be found in the ? flowers, and more especially in the comparative length of the pedicel of the ovary. The serration of the leaves is also of some value.--F. Buchanan White. |
