By means of light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) the structure of leaf’s epidermis of 8 species of genus Sedum L. was investigated. A number of common (amphistomatics, anisocytic type of stomatal complex, strum cuticle) and different signs have been revealed in the structure of the leaf’s tissue. The results acquired on the basis of micromorphology of a leaf’s epidermis can be used in the taxonomy of the investigated Sedum species.
