Abstract

A female Montivipera albizona (White-banded mountain viper) which was preserved in a terrarium at Reptilia biology and ecology laboratory, Zoology Section Department of Biology Ege University Faculty of Science, gave stillbirth repeatedly in October and November. Dead juveniles were weighed on a precision scale, lengths were measured and photographed. The weights of the juveniles were weighted as 1,350 g and 0,725 g, and the lengths were measured as 10 and 9 cm, respectively. The obtained data provide an important contribution to the reproductive biology of the Montivipera albizona (Nilson, Andren & Flardh 1990).

Özet

Ege Üniversitesi Fen Fakültesi Biyoloji Bölümü Zooloji Anabilim Dalı’nda bulunan Reptilia biyolojisi ve ekolojisi araştırma laboratuvarındaki teraryumda muhafaza edilen 1 adet dişi Montivipera albizona (Beyaz bantlı dağ engereği), Ekim ve Kasım aylarında art arda ölü doğumlar gerçekleştirmiştir. Ölü jüvenil bireyler hassas terazide tartılmış, uzunlukları ölçülmüş ve fotoğrafları çekilmiştir. Jüvenillerin ağırlıkları sırasıyla 1,350 ve 0,725 g, uzunlukları ise 10 ve 9 cm olarak ölçülmüştür. Elde edilen veriler Montivipera albizona (Nilson, Andren & Flardh 1990)’nın üreme biyolojisine önemli katkı sağlamaktadır
