Abstract

      Campanula davisii is an species endemic with a narrow distribution to Turkey and east mediterranean phytogeographic region. The morphological and anatomical properties of this species were investigated. When morphological measurements of investigated species are compared with Flora of Turkey, the some differences have determined. Eventually, full description and illustration of these species was given. The anatomical studies on cross-sections of the root, stem, leaves and surface sections of leaves were presented. Cambium located under phloem was 2-3 layered and uncontinuous in root. Underneath the cortex parenchyma is endodermis, which consists of 1 layer and distinguishably in stem. Leaves is bifacial. Stomata are located both on the surface.

     Keywords: Anatomy, Campanula davisii, Endemic, Morphology.
