Abstract
A new hybrid Salix × setifera Efimova, T. A. Poliak. et I. V. Belyaeva from northern Yakutia (Russia) is described and its characteristics are given. Hybrid individuals show diagnostic features of both parental species,S. hastata L. and S. reptans Rupr.Both vegetative and generative organshave intermediate characteristics. No plants with male flowers were found. Based on the detected nucleotide variability of the ITS rDNA region, the hybrid origin of S. × setifera was confirmed. A species-specific transversion (T→A) was detected in ITS2 for S. reptans and S. × setifera, which is absent in S. hastata. It is possible that the hybrid mentioned above occurs in areas where both parental species grow together in the tundra and forest-tundra of northern Eurasia.
