Anahtar sözcükler: Compositae Echinops, polen, taksonomi Introduction The genus Echinops L. (Asteraceae) comprises about 18 species, 2 subspecies and 3 varieties in Turkey (Hedge, 1975; Gemici & Leblebici, 1992; Greuter, 2006-2009; Özhatay et al., 2009). According to Hedge (1975), there are 9 endemic species in the Flora of Turkey area. The present study raises this number to 10. Echinops species in Turkey been classified into 3 sections: Echinops (12 species), Ritrodes Bunge (2 species), and Oligolepis Bunge (2 species). Usually, species of Echinops are anthropophilous or ruderal plants. They are found in fields, on
