Abstract

A systematic revision of the native species of the family Capparaceae (Cleome excluded) was carried out. The
presence of Boscia angustifolia in Egypt is uncertain, while Capparis spinosa is represented in Egypt by 3
varieties viz. : spinosa, inermis & deserti.
Diagnostic characters of the taxa are given and a key for the separation of species and varieties, synonyms and
notes on distribution are provided. SEM features of the leaf epidermis were proved to be of taxonomic
significance.
