- Observation Leaves of F. pulverulenta were amphistomatic.
- Observation All four species showed trichomes.
- Observation Only the Frankeniaceae had salt glands.
- Observation The mesophyll of Asteraceae was isolateral.
- Observation The mesophyll of Frankeniaceae was dorsiventral.
- Observation The number of foliar vascular bundles was variable among the four species.
- Observation Asteraceae stems showed subepidermal collenchyma or parenchyma alternating with chlorenchyma.

- Observation Baccharis tenella presented fibers in the cortex.
- Observation Baccharis spartioides had schysogenous ducts.
