Several
species of Salix (willows) have become naturalised
in Tasmania, often along river banks. These deciduous trees
have catkins in spring.
Three species that are possibly naturalised are not
included in this key. They are Salix matsudana
(chinese willow), Salix X calodendron and
Salix X sepulcralis. The latter two appear to be
hybrids.
