  • Abstract
    Among the rich materials of the genus Salix collected from different localities of Iran and also based on the identification of unknown herbarium specimens in TARI, two new species namely Salix baladehensis and S. issatissensis are described. S. baladehensis is close to S. aegyptiaca but with shorter male catkin up to 2 cm and sparsely hairy bracts. S. issatissensis is an affinity of S. excelsa formerly described as S. excelsa var, rodonii. S. denticulata and S. fedtschenkoi are respectively recorded from Khorassan and Semnan provinces as new to Iran.
