Abstract

Somatic chromosome numbers of 14 species from 6 families were studied in this research. The chromosome numbers of Silene viscosa (2n=24), Leucanthemum vulgare (2n=18), Odontites vernus (2n=40), Pedicularis sibthorpii (2n=16)have been reported here for the first time for the flora of Iran. Ideograms were depicted for each species.
