Abstract

The present study reports somatic chromosome numbers of 7 species belong to 6 familiesfrom Iran.The chromosome numbersofEpilobium palustre (2n=36), Geranium pyrenaicum (2n=26), Sium sisarum (2n=20), Veronica beccabunga (2n=18)were reported for the first time for the flora of Iran. Ferula persica (2n=22)and Tragopogon jesdianus (2n=12)are reported for the first time. The report for Bromus scoparius (2n=28) is the second count for the species in Iran. Ideograms are depicted for each species.
