In this study, morphological and anatomical structure of Convolvulus lineatus L., Convolvulus arvensis
L. and Convolvulus galaticus Rost. ex Choisy were investigated. Morphological investigations of the stem
and leaf characteristics, flower and flower characteristics were specified. In addition, flowering times of the
species, characteristics of the habitat and the altitude information were given. In anatomical examinations,
root, stem and leaf characteristics were determined. Also, stomata and epidermal cell of leaves were
examined. In conclusion, the similarities and differences of three Convolvulus L. species in terms of both
morphological and anatomical features were discussed.
