Abstract

The present study aims to compare some selected members of Verbenaceae and Lamiaceae by giving special emphasis on their pollen morphology. The different taxa under investigation were Vitex negundo L., Clerodendron infortunatum L., Duranta plumier Jacq., Lantana camara L., Leucas aspera Spreng., Plectranthus scutellarioides L. and Ocimum sanctum L. Pollen morphological analysis was done using Scanning Electron Micrographs. Although these families show some similarities, they differ in many features such as phyllotaxy, inflorescence type, style, aperture number and type of pollen.
