Abstract

---

The cypsela morphology of 22 species of Inula L. (s.str.) and its allied genera (Pentanema Cass., Duhaldea DC., Dittrichia Greuter and Iphiona Cass.) was examined from Pakistan and Kashmir. Micromorphological characters of cypselae in this group also support the taxonomic decision, except that of the genera Inula L., and Duhaldea DC., which have quite similar type of cypselae and both are placed in one cypselae type which points out the close relationship of both genera as compared to the other genera of this group.
