A Morphological Study on Nepeta fissa C.A.Mey. (Lamiaceae) From Bingöl (Turkey)

Öz

In this study morphological characters of Nepeta fissa C.A.Mey. investigated for the systematic purposes. At the end of the morphological studies by stereo microscope; leaf shape, leaf indumentum, calyx, corolla, gynoecium, androecium, connection of the filaments to theca and seed characters were determined and compared with Flora of Turkey and Dirmenci’s study with N. fissa. In addition, stem and leaf indumentum, pollen characters and seed coat surface of N. fissa was examined by SEM. As a result, with this study new morphological characters for diagnostic purposes have detected and the description of N. fissa have extended.
