'''Salicaceae''' is a family of [[flowering plant]]s. Recent [[genetics|genetic]] studies by the [[Angiosperm Phylogeny Group]] (APG) has greatly expanded the circumscription of the family to contain 57 genera.

In the [[Cronquist system]] the Salicaceae was treated in its own order Salicales, and contained only three genera (''[[willow|Salix]]'', ''[[poplar|Populus]]'' and ''[[Chosenia]]''), but APG includes it in the [[Malpighiales]]. The additional genera were previously treated in the [[Flacourtiaceae]], but had a mixed history before that and have been treated in Bembiciaceae, Caseariaceae, Homaliaceae, Poliothyrsidaceae, Prockiaceae, [[Samydaceae]], and Scyphostegiaceae.

-'''Salicaceae''' is a family of [[flowering plant]]s. Recent [[genetics|genetic]] studies by the [[Angiosperm Phylogeny Group]] (APG) has greatly expanded the circumscription of the family to contain 57 genera.
+Salicaceae has 2 genera and about 180 species, of which 160 belong to the genus Salix; inhabitants of the north temperate and arctic zones, a few in the tropics and in South Africa. The family is not definitely related to any other family, though possibly to the Tamaricaceae. The flowers of both sexes in catkins, the glandular disk, and the dehiscent many-seeded capsule with comose seeds, are distinctive.
-In the [[Cronquist system]] the Salicaceae was treated in its own order Salicales, and contained only three genera (''[[willow|Salix]]'', ''[[poplar|Populus]]'' and ''[[Chosenia]]''), but APG includes it in the [[Malpighiales]]. The additional genera were previously treated in the [[Flacourtiaceae]], but had a mixed history before that and have been treated in Bembiciaceae, Caseariaceae, Homaliaceae, Poliothyrsidaceae, Prockiaceae, [[Samydaceae]], and Scyphostegiaceae.
+The bark of many species has been used for intermittent fevers and for tanning leather. A yellow dye occurs in the bark of Populus alba and P. tremula, also in Salix alba, S. daphnoides, and others. The resinous buds of P. balsamifera, or tacamahac, furnish American balm of Gilead. The staminate catkins of S. aegyptiaca are odoriferous and are used in the East in medicinal waters, as a cordial, and as a sudorific. Willow and poplar wood is soft and light. The twigs of several species of Salix are universally used in basket-making.
-;Genera
+The two genera are in cultivation in America, as ornamental plants and for shelter-belts and basket-work and sometimes for timber: Populus (Poplar, Aspen, Tacamahac, Balm of Gilead [not the original], Cottonwood, Abele); and Salix (Willow, Osier).{{SCH}}
