Abstract
The morphological characters for 4 taxa of Korean S ymplocaceae were exarnined. Based on morphological examination, numerical analysis was performed to clarify the taxonomic relationships among the taxa. It was found that epidermal characters of leaves, cellular deposition of petals, cellular boundary of petioles, growth of stigmas and pollen grains and their surfaces were useful diagonostic characters. From the results of PCA analysis, four taxa were grouped as species clusters including each populations. Four species of Symplocos were clustered as species groups with clear delirnitation. Morphological, numerical, and palynological analyses supported the previous morphological studies on this family.
