Abstract
Histomorphological structures of the femur and the second phalange of the second outer toe of the left frog leg were investigated using the decalcifying method in Rana bedriagae. Skeleton Growth Marks (SGMs) were clearly observed in Rana bedriagae and it was shown that the skeletochronological technique is convenient and applicable for the age determination of this species.
Özet
Rana bedriagae'nın femur ve parmak kemiklerinin histomorfolojik yapısı dekalsifikasyon yöntemi kullanılarak incelenmiştir. Rana bedriagae'da yaşa bağlı büyüme halkaları bariz şekilde gözlenmiş ve söz konusu tekniğin bu türe uygun ve uygulanabilir olduğu anlaşılmııştır.
