AB  - Consolida thirkeana (Boiss.) Bornm. (Ranunculaceae) is endemic to Turkey and described by laciniae linear leaves, pale lilac flowers, sessile follicles and called as “boz mahmuz”. Plant material was collected from Ayaş (Ankara- Turkey). The transverse sections of leaf, stem and root were examined anatomically in this study. The leaf is monofacial and has a 1-layer epidermis. Ranunculaceous stomata and unicellular non-glandular hairs were observed in the epidermis. The stem is characterized by a 1-layer of epidermis, glandular and non-glandular hairs. Cortex parenchyma contains dense starch. Pericyclic sclerenchymatous ring and concave xylem are observed. The root has periderm, pericyclic sclerenchymatous ring and vessels embedded in sclerenchymatous pith cells.
