Three species of Tasmannia R.Br. ex DC., T. glaucifolia, T. insipida and T. stipitata are studied. The anther is tetrasporangiate and its waU development conforms to the Basic type. The tapetum follows the secretory type of development. Cytokinesis in the microspore mother cells is simultaneous but an evanescent cell plate is present at telophase I and anaphase I1 during meiosis. Pollen tetrads are permanent and tetrahedral. The mature pollen is anaulcerate, reticulate and 2-celled. The ovule. is anatropous, bitegmic and crassinucellate. The micropyle in T. stipitata and T. Glaucifolia is formed by the inner integument only whereas in T. insipida it is formed by both the integuments and is zigzag in outline. Meiosis in the single megaspore mother cell produces a linear or T-shaped megaspore tetrad in T. stipitata and T. glaucifolia but only a linear tetrad in T. insipida. Female gametophyte development is of the monosporic Polygonum type. Fertilisation is porogamous; triple fusion and syngamy occur simultaneously.
