“…The fact that the spines are deeply rooted in this portion (Figs. 3,7,13,16,19), a characteristic also noted by Raj (1983a) in the similar pollen of Clerodendrum, would further support a tectal origin. Caryopteris divaricata (Figs.…”

The pollen morphology of 34 species of Hygrophi/a R. Br. and 11 species of Brillantaisia P. Beauv. was examined w~h light, scanning electron, and selectively w~h transmission electron microscopy. Both genera are characterized by 4-colporate pollen, w~h the ectexine divided into bands by pseudocolpi, usually 3-4 between each colporus, and a thick, continuous endexine. Nine pollen types and six subtypes are recognized here, on the basis of the sculpturing of the ectexine bands, the number and pattem of the pseudocolpi, and the nature of the endoapertures. Pollen morphology supports the close relationship between Hygrophi/a and Brillantaisia. Only two species of Brillantaisia have pollen of a type which is not also found in Hygrophi/a. in Hygrophi/a, pollen morphology Indicates groups of species which may be closely related, and there is evidence lor dnterences between Old and New World species.Re.sume.-La morphologie pollinique de 34 especes d'Hygrophi/a R. Br. et de 11 especes de Brillantaisia P. Beauv. a ete observee en microscopie opllque, electronique ~ balayage, et en transmission pour quelques taxons. Les deux genres sont caracterises par un pollen tetracolpore, l'ectexine divisee en deux bandes par des pseudocolpl, generalement 3-4 entre chaque colpore, et une endexine epaisse et continue. Neul types polliniques et six sous-types sent reconnus ~ partir de l'omementation ectexinique des bandes, du nombre de Ia forme des pseudocolpi et de Ia nature des endoapertures. La morphologie pollinique appuie les affinites etroites des deux genres. II n'existe que deux especes de Brillantaisia doni le type pollinique est dnterent alors qu'll est absent dans le genre Hygrophi/a La morphologie polllnique met egalement en evidence des groupes d'especes etroitement allines dans le genre Hygrophi-/a, at des dnterences sensibles entre les especes du Nouveau et de !'Ancien Monda.Key word.s : Hygrophila -Brillantaisia · Ruellieae -Acanthaceae -pollen morphology -evolutionary relationships.©Societe botanique de France 1994.
