Abstract

In this study, endemic Onosma mollis DC. it is aimed to examine the anatomical and ecological features of (Boraginaceae) plant in detail and to be compared with the other studies. According to the cross-sections, the root is secondary. Primary pith rays that 2-3 layered are observed. Epidermis is single-layered in stem transverse section. Eglandular hairs in the epidermis are simple, with one and two cells. Glandular hairs are capitate, digitate and with two cells. Just under the epidermis, 2-3 rows of collenchyma cells are formed. Both the upper and the lower surface of leaf is covered with numerous eglandular hairs. Eglandular hairs are 2-3 branched. Glandular hairs are of capitate, digitate and peltate type. The habitat of the O. mollis plant is mountain slopes, meadows, and prairies. The soil in which the species grows is clay and loamy. It is also classified as slightly alkaline, salty, calcareous, low phosphorus and high in potassium. According to its organic matter content, it is in the group of good humus soils.
