SUMMARY

The paper presents a partial study of the morpho-anatomical and eco-chorological data regarding Tilia tomentosa Moench. (Tiliaceae) in Romania. Histo-anatomical and morphological characteristics of vegetative organs have been analyzed regarding the main structural features of leaves (including petiole) and offshoot, micromorphology of leaf indumentum, including stomata types and non-glandular trichomes. Aspects about its ecology are presented. Original anatomical photos are shown.
