Popis: Research on the morphological and anatomical constitution of the root and herb from the plant Eryngium campestre L., Apiaceae has been done in this work. The follow elements important for the identification of drug have been defined: in leafs thick cuticle, isolateral mesophill with palisade tissue on the upper and lower region of the leaf and much reduced spongy parenchyma; characteristic arrangement of the mechanical collenchyma tissue, especially in leafs, characteristic wrinkles in the leaf cuticle. In the herb's powder the follow elements could be found: trachea fragments with specific ring wrinkles, parts from the epiderma with stomata, druses and knee-shaped mechanical hairs. In the root and the stem characteristic are secretory tubes and the presence of calcium oxalate druses in great quantity. Additionally in the root typical arrangement of tissues characteristic for the secondary root construction could be noticed, with: xylem rays in wood and in a bark, laticifers, periderma on the periphery, characteristic arrangement of the vascular bundles and great number of druses, esspecialy in the wood. In the root powder: trachea fragments with spiral thickenings, fragments of periderm and cork, parts from parenchyma of the bark with druses could been put aside.
