Sexual size and shape dimorphism in Turkish common toads (Bufo bufo Linnaeus 1758)
(Wiley, 2021)
Differences in male and female traits (sexual dimorphism [SD]) are widespread in animals. Dimorphism in morphological characters evolves under the effect of environmental and genetic factors and is shaped by natural and ...
Morphological variability and age structure in a population of Bufo verrucosissimus (Anura: Bufonidae) from Artvin, Turkey
(University Sao Esalo, 2022)
Morphological variability and age structure in a population of Bufo verrucosissimus (Anura: Bufonidae) from Artvin, Turkey. We investigated morphological diversity (external body traits, coloration patterns and skin ...
Interspecific and intraspecific size and shape variation in skull of two closely related species Bufo bufo (Linnaeus, 1758) and Bufo verrucosissimus (Pallas, 1814) from Turkey
(TUBİTAK Scientific & Technical Research Council Turkey, 2021)
Anurans are the most suitable vertebrate group to see the development and also evolution in the skull, compared to other terrestrial vertebrates as they show highly derived morphology. For this reason, the cranium of anurans ...
Phylogeny and systematics of Anatolian mountain frogs
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017)
Anatolian mountain frogs (Rana macrocnemis, Rana camerani, Rana holtzi, and Rana tavasensis) are one of the most specious amphibian groups in Turkey containing two endemic taxa (R. holtzi and R. tavasensis). the taxonomy ...
On the age structure of two samples of Lacerta trilineata BEDRIAGA, 1886, from different altitudes in Turkey (Squamata: Sarnia: Lacertidae)
(Osterreichische Gesellschaft Herpetologie E V, 2018)
The authors studied the age composition in two samples (Edirne: 17 m a.s.l. and Bolu: 1,250 m a.s.l.) of Lacerta trilineata BEDRIAGA, 1886, in Turkey. Aging by skeletochronology showed that the maximum age of the lizards ...
Age structure and body size of the eastern spadefoot toad pelobates syriacus boettger, 1889 (Anura: Pelobatidae) from Afyonkarahisar, Turkey
(Inst Zoology, Bas, 2019)
This is the first study to report the average age of adulthood and sexual maturity in individuals of Pelobates syriacus Boettger, 1889 from Afyon, Turkey. the age of male and female individuals was found to vary between ...
Age structure and body size variation in common toad (Bufo bufo, Linnaeus 1758) from three different altitudes in Turkey
(Pleiades Publishing Inc, 2019)
We describe here for the first time the body size and age of the Common Toad (Bufo bufo) from high (Trabzon, 1090 m and Kastamonu, 925 m above sea level) and low (Yalova, 65 m above sea level) altitudes in Turkey using ...
Taxonomic assessment and distribution of common toads (Bufo bufo and B. verrucosissimus) in Turkey based on morphological and molecular data
(Brill, 2020)
The Bufo bufo species group includes four species distributed in the western Palearctic: B. bufo. B. eichwaldii, B. spinosus and B. verrucosissimus. Both B. bufo and B. verrucosissimus are known to occur in Turkey, but ...
Spatiotemporal distribution of microplastics in true frogs (Ranidae: Pelophylax) populations from Turkiye
(Elsevier, 2023)
Microplastics (MPs), which are of increasing concern in almost all ecosystems, continue to be an environmental threat. In the present study, the presence of MPs is investigated by using the gastrointestinal tracts (GITs) ...
Easternmost distribution of Bufo bufo (Linnaeus, 1758) in Türkiye: implications for the putative contact zone between B. bufo and B. verrucosissimus
(Springer, 2022)
The geographic range of a species is crucial for obtaining information on the exact distribution of the species. The geographic
data are important for delimiting distinct species or exploring the degree of diferentiation ...
