COUSINIA PAPILLOSA, A NEW SPECIES FROM EASTERN IRAN, INCLUDING CHROMOSOME COUNT AND PALYNOLOGICAL STUDIES
Authors
Abstract:
Cousinia papillosa (Asteraceae) from eastern Iran is described and illustrated as a new species. Differences between the new species and its closest relative, C. meshhedensis, are discussed. A map showing the distribution of the two species is given. The scanning electron micrography of the pollen grains shows obvious differences between the two species especially in the sculpturing of exine. The meiotic chromosome count is also reported (n=13).

Two new species of Cousinia are described from Iran. Cousinia bornmulleriana from the west that can be placed in sect. Haussknechtii based on some key characters such as flower numbers, phyllary numbers and the inflorescence form traits. This species can be also compared with its closest relative C. haussknechtii. and C. karkasensis. The second new species, C. semnanensis, from North East of Ir...

In this study, we investigated the chromosome numbers of some endemic species distributed in East and South-East Iran. The mitotic chromosome counts were presented for the first time for six species in three angiosperm families including: Linaria iranica (2n=12), Nanorrhinum campyloceras (2n=18), Chaenorhinum grossecostatum (2n=24) (Plantaginaceae), Gaillonia bruguieri (Rubiaceae) (2n=22), Nepe...
