Morphological and anatomical characteristics of Crocus ancyrensis Herb. (Maw) (endemic), C. antalyensis Mathew (endemic), C. chyrsanthus (Herb.) Herb. and C. sativus L. which are distributed in Central Anatolia, Turkey have been studied. The morphological characteristics of species have been compared with the Flora of Turkey.
