Abstract Pollen grains of four species of Salvia genus were collected and described in relation with their morphology. Two groups were distinguished according to size and shape differences, principally in the width of the colpo and thickness of the exine. The bigger pollen species (S. haenkei and S. Orbignae) are considered as undershrubs meanwhile S. personata and S. stachydifolia corresponds to herbaceous species. These characteristics are considered as important taxonomic traits (e.g. the sculpture of the exine), in this way, this research increase the knowledge about this important group of plants.
