Micromorphological characters viz., receptacular surface and antherapices strengthen the existence of 22 taxa of Inula L., (s.str.) and itsallied genera (Pentanema Cass., Duhaldea DC., Drittichia Greuter andIphiona Cass.) from Pakistan and Kashmir. The receptacles are withoutscaly ridges in the genera Inula L. (s.str.) and Pentanema, while thegenera Duhaldea, Dittrichia and Iphiona have unevenly incised scalyridges on receptacle. Acute- obtuse anther apices are present in Inula,Pentanema, Dittrichia and Iphiona. The genus Duhaldea is characterizedby the presence of truncate-emarginate anther apices.
