Abstract

 The current study included a comparative morphological and anatomical study of leaf epidermal cells with cross-sections of stems and peduncles of different types of plant species belonging to different families. The study included six species: Capparis spinosa, Lantana camara, Mentha piperita, Eucalyptus camaldulensis, Hosta Venusta, Rumex vesic . The formal anatomical study of these species is very important to distinguish between them, as samples of the study were collected from the Bab al-Moadham area in Baghdad. And the diagnosis of species within the same family, and this research included pictures of field samples collected from different and multiple sites within Baghdad and some of its surrounding areas, and included many pictures of the sections that were studied for the different plant organs as well as many tables, and the results of this anatomical study were discussed, especially what is Related to the environment of these species. In this research, the phenotypic and anatomical characteristics of three species belonging to different families were studied: the oleander belonging to the family Oleander, the Nabek belonging to the Sidra family, and the caper belonging to the Qabar family. The six species were compared morphologically and anatomically.
