|discussion=<p>Hybrids:</p><!--
--><p><i>Salix boothii</i> forms natural hybrids with <i>S. brachycarpa </i>var.<i> brachycarpa</i>, <i>S. eastwoodiae</i>, <i>S. glauca </i>var.<i> villosa</i>, and <i>S. wolfii</i>. There are numerous intermediate specimens of <i>S. boothii</i> that suggest hybridization with <i>S. arizonica</i>, <i>S. brachycarpa</i>, <i>S. eastwoodiae</i>, <i>S. lutea</i>, or <i>S. wolfii</i>, but further study is needed. A DNA study of <i>S. arizonica</i> showed that a specimen from southwestern Utah previously identified as <i>S. arizonica</i> × <i>S. wolfii</i> probably was <i>S. boothii</i> × <i>S. wolfii</i> (J. T. Thompson et al. 2003).</p><!--
--><p>In Mountain Park, Alberta, and the Steens Mountains, Oregon, the putative hybrid <i>Salix boothii</i> × <i>S. glauca </i>var.<i> villosa</i> grew in thickets with both parents. Ovaries were sparsely hairy on the distal half or on the beak, leaves were glaucous abaxially, and floral bracts were mostly glabrous abaxially, but some with hairs proximally. One plant in fruit produced copious seed hairs but no seed.</p>
