Abstract

A total of 36 dicot species distributed in 34 genera and 20 families were investigated for stomatal diversity.

Seven types of stomata were found in which amphianisocytic was the dominant one found in 12 species while staurocytic and diacytic were found in 7 and 6 species respectively. In 7 species two and in one species three different types of stomata were found.
