Abstract: Petiole anatomical studies were conducted on six species of Bauhinia viz., B.blakeana Dunn., B.malabarica Roxb., B.purpurea1 L., B.purpurea2 L., B.racemosa Lam. and B.tomentosa L. belonging to family Leguminosae (Fabaceae) in search of useful and stable taxonomic characters for the identification of species. Petiole showed diagnostic values that are of taxonomic importance. The result showed substantial variation in the petiole outline, thickness in cuticle, cortex main vascular regions and presence of cell inclusions. Petiole outline in B .racemosa, B. blakeana and B.purpurea1 was planoconvex, while B.malabarica, B.tomentosa and B.purpurea 2 had circular. In the main vascular region B.malabarica, B.tomentosa, B. racemosa, B.purpurea1 had two inverted medullary bundle, while B.blakeana had one inverted medullary bundle and no medullary bundle was observed in B.purpurea2. Cell inclusions were in the form of rhomboidal crystals observed in B.blakeana, B.racemosa, B.purpurea1 and spheraphides observed in B.malabarica, B.tomentosa and B.purpurea 2. Cluster analysis was done for the petiole anatomical characters of all six species of Bauhinia, in which three major clusters were observed linked to each other. A diagnostic key was made which suggests that the study provides referential anatomical information for the correct identification of the species.
