Abstract

A winter activity of the Danford’s lizard, Anatololacerta danfordi (Günther, 1876) has been observed during two winter seasons in Sütçüler and Aksu districts of Isparta province of Turkey. There is no information in the literature about the active season of this species. Our data showed that this lizard species may be active in winter. Activations of the adult individuals of the species mainly consisted of sunbathing on the rocks and preying.

Özet

Türkiye’nin Isparta ilinin Sütçüler ve Aksu ilçelerinde Toros Kertenkelesi, Anatololacerta danfordi (Günther, 1876)’nin bir kış aktivitesi iki kış sezonu boyunca gözlenmiştir. Literatürde bu türün aktif sezonu hakkında herhangi bir bilgi yoktur. Verilerimiz, bu kertenkele türünün kış aylarında da aktif olabileceğini göstermiştir. Türün yetişkin bireylerinin faaliyetleri esas olarak kayaların üzerinde güneşlemekten ve avlanmaktan oluşmaktaydı.
