In this study, the morphological features and anatomical structure of the endemic Verbascum basivelatum species were examined for the first time. As a result of the examinations, new morphological characters were determined. The morphology obtained from the V. basivelatum (in Tukish Kadifesığırkuyruğu) species was compared with its description in the Flora of Turkey and tabulated. The V. basivelatum species is distributed in the Iran-Turanian phytogeographic region and is an endemic species in the A group determination key. Its habitat is serpentine rocks. The species has 5 stamens, of which 4 are fertile and 1 is staminode, filaments are whitish-purple-violet hairy. Anatomical features of the V. basivelatum species were determined by transverse sections taken from root, stem, leaves and superficial sections taken from leaves. The leaf has multicellular candelabra hairs and glandular hairs. Thus, the endemic V. basivelatum species was examined in detail for the first time in terms of morphology and anatomy, and new findings were revealed. This study will contribute to the recognition and protection of Turkey's biodiversity.
