摘要

罗马尼亚龟(Testudo graeca)是罗马尼亚两种陆龟之一，另一种是hermanni陆龟。众所周知，该物种的分布范围广泛但分散，这一事实将该物种列为世界自然保护联盟红色名录中的易危物种。来自Natura 2000遗址“来自Agigea的海洋沙丘”的Testudo graeca ibera种群的特点是在总共43只存活的个体中受伤的比例很高(84%)。很高比例的个体在甲壳和底板的所有板块上都有损伤。所有病变似乎都是慢性的，这表明有一系列的诱发因素，如:不适当的地形(混凝土，金属，碎玻璃和其他硬物)，高密度的狗群和食粪，这可能是营养不平衡的迹象。这是第一次报道有如此高比例的个体有壳损伤的Testudo graeca种群。

High incidence of shell injuries in an isolated population of the spur-thighed tortoise (Testudo graeca ibera) from Romania

Abstract Testudo graeca is one of the two species of tortoises from Romania, the other one being Testudo hermanni. It is well known that this species has a broad but fragmented distribution range and this fact labels this species as Vulnerable in the IUCN Red List. The population of Testudo graeca ibera from the Natura 2000 site “Marine dunes from Agigea” is characterized by a high percentage of injuries (84%) from the total of 43 individuals found alive. A high percentage of individuals have injuries on all the plates from carapace and plastron. All lesions appear to be chronic, suggesting that there is a series of predisposing factors, such as: inadequate terrain (concrete, metal, broken glass and other hard objects), high-density dog population and coprophagia, which could be a sign of unbalanced nutrition. This is the first report of a population of Testudo graeca which has such a high percentage of individuals with shell damage.

It publishes original research or review articles dealing with all aspects of general zoology (taxonomy, systematics, evolutionism, faunistics, zoogeography, palaeozoology, animal ecology, invasive species of animals, parasitism, biodiversity conservation). Also, some book reviews, anniversaries and obituaries of some personalities of science world can be accepted to be published in this journal. In the present, the only language accepted for this journal is English. The scope of the journal is to publish, disseminate and provide open access to the results of the original studies made in different zoological fields, in Romania and worldwide.
