ABSTRACT: For the
first time, the anatomical structure of the vegetative organs of the species J. hippolyti and J. narbuti was
studied in the conditions of Kyzylkum (Uzbekistan, Province Bukhara) and
revealed the diagnostic features of these species. A different combination of
xeromorphic and mesomorphic features was determined, which ensures adaptation
to habitat conditions. In J. narbuti xeromorphic features predominate, which indicates a more adaptable and wide
distribution in the natural habitat of this species. In J. hippolyti—mesomorphic
signs that show the
rarity of the species in their natural habitat, compared to J. narbuti.
