摘要
本研究的目的是利用骨骼年代学的方法,获得异ococcus (Mediodactylus heterocercus)个体的寿命和性成熟年龄等生活史特征。在Güzelköy (Haliliye, Şanlıurfa, t kiye)的种群中采集了31只标本(雄性12只,雌性19只)。雄性个体年龄4 ~ 9岁,雌性个体年龄3 ~ 10岁,平均年龄分别为6.25±1.60岁和5.21±1.55岁。两性性成熟年龄均为3岁。人口中个体的平均年龄在性别之间没有统计学上的显著差异。计算得出的鼻口长度(SVL)均值男性为41.90±4.31 mm (33.53 ~ 46.69 mm),女性为39.16±5.05 mm (30.18 ~ 48.29 mm)。结果表明,SVL测量值的性别差异无统计学意义,但年龄与SVL之间存在显著关系。在气候或地形异质性方面,异ococcus不遵循Bergmann规则。
Life history traits and spatial characteristics of an Asia Minor thin-toed gecko population (Mediodactylus heterocercus Blanford, 1874).
The aim of the present study was to obtain information on certain life history traits such as life span and age of sexual maturity of individuals of the species Mediodactylus heterocercus using the method of skeletochronology. A total of 31 specimens (12 males, 19 females) was aged from a population located in Güzelköy (Haliliye, Şanlıurfa, Türkiye). The age of male individuals ranged from 4 to 9 years, while that of females ranged from 3 to 10 years, with mean values of 6.25±1.60 and 5.21±1.55 years, respectively. The age of sexual maturity was 3 years for both sexes. The mean age of individuals in the population did not show a statistically significant difference between the sexes. The calculated mean values of snout-vent length (SVL) were 41.90±4.31 mm (33.53-46.69 mm) for males and 39.16±5.05 mm (30.18-48.29 mm) for females. It was concluded that the difference in SVL measurements between the sexes was not statistically significant, but a significant relationship between age and SVL was found. The species M. heterocercus does not follow Bergmann's rule with regard to climatic or topographic heterogeneity.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Biosciences is a quarterly journal published by the Indian Academy of Sciences, Bangalore. It covers all areas of Biology and is the premier journal in the country within its scope. It is indexed in Current Contents and other standard Biological and Medical databases. The Journal of Biosciences began in 1934 as the Proceedings of the Indian Academy of Sciences (Section B). This continued until 1978 when it was split into three parts : Proceedings-Animal Sciences, Proceedings-Plant Sciences and Proceedings-Experimental Biology. Proceedings-Experimental Biology was renamed Journal of Biosciences in 1979; and in 1991, Proceedings-Animal Sciences and Proceedings-Plant Sciences merged with it.
