The herbarium specimen of 8 different species of Hibiscus deposited at BSI, Western circle, Pune namely Hibiscus mannihot, Hibiscus collinus, Hibiscus tillaceus, Hibiscus suratensis, Hibiscus hipidissimus, Hibiscus solondra, Hibiscus panduraeformis, Hibiscus trionuswere studied. The quantitative characters were recorded by using scale in cms. Parameters like Principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis applied to the data. The results of both leads to delimitation and closed relation of the taxa. Correlation between all quantitative characters showed that internode is the delimiting factor and petiole length and leaf length are close to each other.Analysis refers to cluster analysis and dendrogram on the basis of farthest neighbour mean characters difference and constrained clustering strategy exhibits dissimilarities in between the species. Eigen value table showed that Internode is actually the main factor and leaf length can also delimit the taxa. Value of scree plot is above one. Internode and leaf length have eigen values above 1. In the morphometric studies it has been observed by the Most allied species are Hibiscus mannihot and Hibiscus collinus both are closely related and node 6 and node 4 species is the most diverse from the other group.
