580227 Salix berberifolia Pall.

GBIF

Geography: Asian (C-NE).

Notes: Three races of Salix berberifolia are recognized: subsp. berberifolia in south-central Siberia and non-arctic parts of the Russian Far East, subsp. fimbriata in arctic and non-arctic parts of the Russian Far East, and subsp. kamtschatica in Pacific Asia. Nedolushko (1995) synonymized subsp. kamtschatica with S. tschuktschorum, whereas other authors assign it as a race to S. tschuktschorum. We follow Skvortsov (1968) and accept it as a race of S. berberifolia.
