Abstract

---

The seed characters of 10 species of Veronica in Iran are described. Six distinct types based on seed features such as shape, surface ornamentation and cell shape are distinguished. A diagnostic key for determination of these taxa is provided. One of the examined species i.e., Veronica davisii, is recorded for first time from Iran. This species is compared with its closest relatives within sect. Veronicastntrum.
