In this study the anatomical and micromorphological characteristics of Gypsophila<br />
osmangaziensis which is new for Flora of Turkey are investigated. Root, stem and leaf crosssections<br />
are investigated for anatomical studies and seed and leaf surfaces are investigated for<br />
micromorphological studies. Root show perennial characteristics. Cortex layer carries druse<br />
crystal densely. Pericycle layer of stem is composed of sclerenchymatic cells which have 15-<br />
17 line, very thick cell wall. Huge triangle-like shapes of some cells in leaf epidermis draw<br />
attention. Mesophyll is isobilateral and carry druse crystal partly. Seed surface is of obtus<br />
tubercule. In the micromorphological structure of leaf, huge cells of epidermis can be<br />
observed in details.<br />
