Abstract

The pollen grains of 22 species bolonging to 10 genera of Malvaceae which are represented in the flora of Egypt
were studied using light microscope (LM). The pollen grains are spheroidal, relatively large with numerous
pores scattered irregularly all over the grain, sculpturing is echinate. Pollen morphological differences were
found useful when combined with other gross morphological characters to distinguish between certain taxa.
