Abstract | ||||
Silene oreosinaica is a rare, endemic plant species in Saint Catherine protectorate. It was collected for first time by Schimper in July 1835, and then it was collected in 1982 and 1983. Since this date, it could not be found and therefore there was no sufficient data about it. This paper aims to confirm the presence of Silene oreosinaica and gives sufficient data about its distribution, morphological description based on field observation, anatomical characteristics of stem and leaf, pollen grains and seed micromorphology. | ||||
