Abstract

Detailed investigations carried out on Darevskia rudis (Bedriaga, 1886) populations from NortheasternAnatolia, Turkey to identify sexual dimorphism. 11 morphometric and 30 meristic features of 317specimens were analyzed. Seven meristic (Ventral width, Dorsals attached ventrals at mid-trunk,Femoral pores, Subdigital lamellae left, Tibial scales, Dorsalia). and four metric (Pileus length, Pileuswidth, Head length, Head width) characters were significant in sexual dimorphism pattern (p

Özet

Eşeysel dimorfizmi belirlemek için Kuzeydoğu Anadolu’dan Darevskia rudis (Bedriaga, 1886) populasyonları üzerinde detaylı yapılan araştırmada 317 örneğin 11 morfometrik ve 30 meristik özelliği analiz edilmiştir. Yedi meristik (Ventral genişlik, gövdedeki ventrale bağlanan dorsalia sayısı, Femoral porlar, Sol subdijital lamel, Tibial plaklar, Dorsalia). ve dört metrik (Pileus uzunluğu, Pileus genişliği, Kafa uzunluğu, Kafa genişliği) karakterleri eşeysel dimorfizm açısından anlamlı bulunmuştur (p
