Key

The key is designed for searching by taxonomic criteria or morphological characteristics. Users can search the database according to a single criterion or a combination of morphological characteristics commonly used to visually identify pollen: ornamentation, size range, aperture, and dispersal unit. Images are associated with each morphological characteristic and the glossary provides descriptions of the terms.
