Abstract

This study is based on karyological analyses of nine Rhinolophus ferrumequinum specimens collected from Turkey between 2000 and 2004. It was determined that the diploid chromosome number 2n is 58 and number of autosomal arms NFa , 60 in this species. For taxonomical evaluation of R. ferrumequinum, a total of 239 specimens, collected from Turkey between 1974 and 2000, were studied. Our karyotypic and morphometric data were compared with the relevant literature and the results showed that the Turkish R. ferrumequinum seems to be represented by the nominate form.

Özet

B u araştırma 2000 ve 2004 yılları arasınsa Türkiye’den toplanan 9 Rhinolophus ferrumequinum örneğinin karyolojik analizine dayanmaktadır. Bu türde diploid kromozom sayısı 2n 58 ve otomozal kol sayısı 60 olarak bulunmuştur. Rhinolophus ferrumequinum’un taksonomik revizyonu için 1974 ve 2000 yılları arasında Türkiye’den toplanan toplam 239 örnek incelendi. Karyolojik ve morfometrik verilerle literatür verileri karşılaştırılmış ve Türkiye’deki Rhinolophus ferrumequinum’un nominatif form ile temsil edildiği sonucuna varılmıştır
