Abstract
The pollen morphology of some Eurasiatic species of the genus Quercus was studied by means of scanning electron microscopy. Three major pollen types can be distinguished. The relation between these pollen types and the evergreen and deciduous habits is discussed, as well as their taxonomic significance.
