| Abstract | The pollen morphology of 45 taxa, seven genera of Convolvulaceae is based on observationsfrom a light microscope, but the features seen in the scanning electron microscope are also mentionedwhere appropriate. The pollen of Thai Convolvulaceae can be divided into six pollen types based ontheir aperture, namely Polypantoporate, Hexacolpate, Tricolpate, Periporate, Pantoporate andZonocolpate. Five subtypes were recognized in the Pantoporate type, which are Evolvulus, Aquatica,Quamoclit, Obscura and Pes-tigridis pollen subtypes. Moreover, the spines of all taxa can be dividedinto six spine types based on Hsiao and Kouth's (1995) data. The pollen features of Argyreia andIpomoea are isolated from the other genera in long spine. The pollen morphology of the genusMerremia and Operculina are similar. Evolvulus, Hewittia and Jacquemontia have close pollen features.Thai Convolvulaceae pollen can be grouped into three classes based on size, which are medium, largeand very large based on Erdtman's (1952) data. |
