Abstract
POLLEN- and associated stigma-dimorphism within the family Plumbaginaceæ were discovered in 1883 by McCleod1, who observed them in Limonium. Since then, the range of genera showing pollen-dimorphism has been extended by various authors2–5to include Armeria, Acantholimon and Limoniastrum, while stigma-dimorphism has also been demonstrated in Armeria3,4.
