- Abstract
In the present study Isoetes coromandelina ssp. thanensis S.K. Shukla, S.K. Singh, P.K. Shukla, N.K. Dubey, H. Khanam & G.K. Srivastava a micro endemic new subspecies is described from the Than in Rajkot District of Gujarat state in coastal zone of India. Morphologically, the new subspecies is most similar to I. coromandelina ssp. coromandelina but differs in its microspore with levigate surface ornamentation and chromosome number 2n = 22 + 1.
