It's not quite so clear cut. Stomatal density has been shown to vary depending on the age of the plant, the environmental conditions such as light and water, and the genetic influences. Not to mention the specific species of each that you're concerned with!

Having said that, one article cites 170-220 per mm^2 in the lower epidermis as a typical amount (link below).
