摘要
The genus Barleria L. (Acanthaceae) comprises some 300 species distributed in Africa and Asia. In India it is represented by 26 species, one subspecies and one variety. The genus includes distinct ornamental garden plants. Recent infra-generic classification of the genus recognizes seven sections under two subgenera. Of these, Barleria sect. Cavirostrata is represented by five species in India. All these species are endemic but so far only one species has been studied cytologically. The present communication is an attempt to provide basic cytological data on Barleria grandiflora Dalzell of this section. The species showed 2n=44, which is the highest chromosome count for the genus so far studied. The karyotype of the species is moderately symmetrical.
