Abstract

The pollen morphology of nineteen species of Solunaceae, Convolvulaceae and Hydrophyllaceae usually cultivated in southern Spain are studied by light and scanning electron microscopy. Pollen was acetolysed by the method of Erdtman (1960) modificated by Reitsma (1969) and mounted in glycerine jelly for light microscopy. For scanning electron microscopy the pollen were coated of evaporate gold.

The taxa examined have generally 3-colpate or 3-colporate pollen grains with small or medium size and without supratectal elements, except Calonvction aculeatum House and Ipontoca mutahilis Lind. that have polipantoporate pollen grains, large or very large and supretectals elements up to 12 µm.
