Abstract
In this paper the main characteristics of the shape thickness and distribution of hairs for the species of the genus Cornus L. are given with special regard to the differences between the species Cornus australis and C. hungarica. By the analytical-graphical method it is found that these two species are completely different in the property 'the length of hairs', while the property 'the number of hairs per a surface unit' varies the most likely depending upon the micro-climatic conditions of the habitat. From the above said it results that the length of compass-hairs which in C. australis is 0.302 mm and in C. hungarica is 0.613 mm (the arithmetic mean) can serve as the very reliable property to distinguish the mentioned species.
