Abstract

Humans have begun to make collections with many living and lifeless samples that they have collected from the very nature of the past as a result of day-to-day curiosity. Thanks to these collections, many living creatures are playing an important role in introducing them to future generations. For this reason, it is necessary to increase the studies about the discovery of inventories in the Zoological Museums and presenting them to the scientific world. In this study, the inventories of amphibian and reptile specimens preserved in Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Zoology Museum (COMU-ZM) were established within the scope of the projects and scientific studies carried out since 2003. A total of 316 specimens 16 different species including Amphibia, a total of 918 specimens 66 different species belonging to the Reptilia have been identified at the Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Zoology Museum (COMU-ZM). As a result of this work, museum records of amphibian and reptile species in Turkey will form the basis of scientific studies.
