For this purpose, sampling of 19 populations was done. During this study 6 species P. nodosus, P. pusillus P. perfoliatus, P. pectinatus, P. lucens, P. amblyphyllus were identified by credible resources that has been reported for the first time in this regions. Using credible resources 46 qualitative and quantitative characters was selected. Interspecific relationships were determined by drawing the dendrogram.
