Floral anatomy of some Melastomataceae

Feddes Repertorium, 1991
AbstractThe floral anatomy of five taxa of Melastomataceae, namely, Memecylon edule, M. guinensis, M. capitellatum, Rhexia marina and Tabouchina semidecandra has been studied. The regular, epigynous flowers are tetramerous in Memecylon edule, M. capitellatum, Rhexia marina and pentamerous in M. guinensis and Tabouchina semidecandra. The floral parts as
