Özet

Morphological, palynological, and karyological features of Ebenus longipes Boiss.& Bal. and E. argentea Siehe ex Bornm. have been examined in detail. Morphologically, stems, shape of leaves and pair of leaflets, bracts, calyx, flowers, and fruit structure are examined and discussed. Pollen grains of both species are radially symmetrical, isopolar, tricolpate, prolate, and ornamentations are microreticulate.Their exine structures are the same. Both species are diploid with the chromosomenumber of 14. All chromosomes are metacentric. One pair of chromosomes with asatellite is present in both species. Based on these results, E. argentea is reduced assynonym of E. long pipes.
