'''Swamp Willow''' (''Salix myrtilloides'') is a [[shrub]]by [[willow]] native to [[bog]]lands in subarctic and arctic [[Europe]] and [[Asia]], with a few small isolated populations further south in [[mountain]] bogs in the [[Alps]].

The [[leaf|leaves]] resemble [[Bilberry|Bog Bilberry]] (''Vaccinium uliginosum'') (hence the name in the [[Finnish language|Finnish]] and [[Swedish language|Swedish]] languages which translates as "Bog Bilberry Willow").

A very similar closely related species, the [[Bog Willow]] (''Salix pedicellaris''), occurs in northern [[North America]]; it is classified as a [[variety (biology)|variety]] of Swamp Willow ''S. myrtilloides'' var. ''pedicellaris'' by some botanists.
