Abstract
Ten species of Clusiaceae are studied with scanning electron microscope. Characters like scattered tectal perforations inAllanblackia andRheedia, granulate apertural membrane of theHarungana, Psorospermum andVismia, spinules borne on stilts inGarcinia balica and on ascending ridge like elements inGarcinia travancorica are brought to light.
