 | | Pollen Morphology of the Dilleniaceae and Actinidiaceae, 1055-1073 |
 | | Dilleniaceae pollen ranges from tricolpate, tricolporate, tetracolpate, and incipiently inaperturate. |
 | | Pollen morphological differences that can be noted between these families are: tectum complete and predominantly psilate or psilate-granular in Actinidiaceae, tectum incomplete, punctate to reticulate in Dilleniaceae; an equatorial bridge of ektexine over the endoaperture usually present in Actinidiaceae, absent in Dilleniaceae; columellae reduced in Actinidiaceae, columellae usually well-developed in Dilleniaceae. |
