Ohba were examined in comparison with H. mutabilis L. Hibiscus makinoi, distributed from the Ryukyu Islands to western Kyushu of Japan, has been confused with H . mutabilis which is widely cultivated and sometimes escaped in western Japan. Eight flo-ral characters ; petal length, petal width, style length, anther-anther distance, anther-stigma distance, number of anthers, number of episepals, episepal width, and potential number of seeds per fruit and dry seed weight were measured for 10 individuals of H . makinoi and for 7 individuals of H . mutabilis, respectively. The petal length and width, style length, anther-anther distance, anther-stigma distance, and number of stamens of H . makinoi were signficantly smaller, and the episepal width was wider than those of H . mutabilis. Floral vari-ations in color and form of H . makinoi might be due to its ruderal habitat and for pollinators.}, pages = {27--33}, title = {サキシマフヨウの花の形質と変異,特にフヨウとの比較において}, volume = {54}, year = {2006} }
