Abstract
In this study, the feeding biology is being examined on 80 Bufo viridis specimens (30 $male male$ , 50 $female female$ ) which were all collected from 6 localities of the vicinity of Üzmir. In accordance with the stomach content analysis it was fully determined that the species is predominantly nourished in a insectivorous way (92, 20%) and also Oligochaeta, Crustacea, Arachnida, Gastropoda, Diplopoda, Chilopoda and Amphibia take place in its nutrition types. Throught out the insects, Hymenoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Dermaptera, Homoptera, Plecoptera, Blattaria and Embioptera; from Oligochaeta Lumbriculida; from Crustacea Isopoda; from Arachnida Araneae and Opiliones; from Gastropoda Stylommatophora; from Diplopoda Julida; from Chilopoda Lithobiida and Scolopendrida and also from Amphibia only Anur genus were being determined.
Özet
Bu çalışmada İzmir civarında 6 lokatileden toplanan 80 Bufo viridis (30 $male male$ 50 $female female$) örneğinde beslenme biyolojisi araştırıldı. Mide içeriği analizinden türün predominant olarak böcekçil (% 92,20) beslendiği; Oligochaeta, Crustacea, Arachnida, Gastropoda, Diplopoda, Chilopoda ve Amphib'lerin de besinleri arasında olduğu anlaşıldı. Böceklerden Hymenoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Hemiptera, Dermaptera, Homoptera, Plecoptera, Blattaria ve Embioptera; Oligochaeta'dan Lumbriculida; Crustacea'lerden Isopoda; Arachnida'dan Araneae ve Opiliones; Gastropoda'dan Stylommatophora; Diplopoda'dan Julida; Chilopoda'dan Lithobiida ve Scolopendrida üyeleri; ayrıca Amphibia'dan ise bir tek Anur üyesi belirlendi.
