|discussion=<p>Hybrids:</p><!--
--><p><i>Salix breweri</i> apparently hybridizes with <i>S. lasiolepis</i>. The plants in Yolo County have less hairy leaves, long petioles, and capsules that are relatively long and slender, glabrescent, and distinctly stipitate.</p><!--
--><p>See 111. <i>Salix delnortensis</i> for a discussion of origin.</p>
