Abstract
The present paper deals with the results of cytological examination of a collection of original species of the genusRosa. The ascertainment of chromosome counts in 64 individuals belonging to 24 taxa is given. For 8 species and 4 varieties the chromosome counts are published for the first time. In 31 plants meiosis during the microsporogenesis has been also examined.
