Structure, distribution and taxonomic importance of stomata in some Indian Tephrosia Pers. (Fabaceae)

Abstract Structure, distribution and taxonomic importance of stomata in all the vegetative parts of 18 taxa of Indian Tephrosia including five species endemic to south India are described. The stomata are anisocytic, anomocytic or paracytic. In addition, brachyparacytic stomata have been recorded for the first time in this taxon. This is the first attempt to assess subgeneric treatment in the light of stomatal characteristics and it suggests certain realignments at the infrageneric level in Indian Tephrosia .
