Abstract

A detailed description of ovule development and embryology ofHemiphylacus alatostylus is given, together with a chromosome count and karyotype. Comparative data are presented forAsparagus andAnemarrhena, since earlier analysis ofrbcL sequence data indicated a relationship between them.Hemiphylacus should be included inAsparagaceae. A close relationship between them is strongly supported byrbcL analysis, and they are further linked by the shape and histology of the fertilised ovule. However, both morphological and molecular data indicate thatAnemarrhena is a more isolated taxon.
