    Distribution of indian crested porcupine hystrix indica (Kerr, 1792) (Mammalia: Rodentia) in Batman province
    (Batman Üniversitesi, 2016) Yürümez, Gökhan; Ulutürk, Servet
    In this study, it is aimed to detect the statue of Hystrix indica (Kerr, 1792) in Batman province. H. indica (Indian crested porcupine) is placed under the category of “least concern” (LC) species in the IUCN Red List, however it is a near threatened (NT) rodent species in Turkey. Three Indian crested porcupines were observed in three different localities in Batman province. The bio-ecological properties and protection measures of H. indica, which was investigated by direct and indirect observation techniques between the years of 2014 and 2015 in the province of Batman, were recorded in this study.

    Geometric morphometrics comparation of two chromosomal forms (2n=52 and 56) of nannospalax ehrenbergi (Nehring 1898) from Southeast Region in Turkey
    (Batman Üniversitesi, 2016) Yürümez, Gökhan; Coşkun, Yüksel
    In this study, 26 (13 ♀♀, 13 ♂♂) specimens of two chromosomal forms of Nannospalax ehrenbergi from Mardin and Siirt-Batman provinces were compared with using by geometric morphometrics to evaluate by taxonomically. According to the results of Relative Warp Analysis (RWA), Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Canonical Variance Analysis (CVA), populations of 2n=52 (Mardin) and 2n=56 (Siirt-Batman) are different from each other by geometric morphometrics. Also according to the CVA, female and male populations’ skulls of 2n=56 (Siirt-Batman) showed that sexual dimorphism. Skulls of specimens are deposited at the Biology Department, Science Faculty, Dicle University, Turkey

    Karyotypes of the Mole Rats, genus Nannospalax (Palmer, 1903) (Spalacidae: Rodentia) populations in eastern Anatolia, Turkey
    (Research Affairs of Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, 2012) Coşkun, Yüksel; Kaya, Alaettin; Ulutürk, Servet; Yürümez, Gökhan; Moradi, Mohammad
    The Spalacidae are Southeast European and East Mediterranean blind rodents, highly adapted for life underground. Their taxonomy needs a modern revision including chromosomal data as well as morphology. Mole rats of the family Spalacidae range over Turkey and approximately 30 karyotypes of Nannospalax complex inhabit. The diploid number of chromosome of Nannospalax ranges from 36 to 62. Also, fundamental number of chromosomal arms, NF values vary from 66 to 92 while the fundamental number of autosomal arms, NFa ranging from 62 to 88. Unfortunely, karyological studies of the Nannospalax populations on the territory of Turkey on the whole are far from being satisfactory. Karyological studies of this group may yield further chromosomal forms in Turkey, which has a wide range of climatic and biotic conditions and the boundaries of the distribution region of the known species might be determined. In this study, chromosomal forms of Nannospalax in East Anatolia (Erzurum, Kars and Ağrı province) were investigated. The materials of 16 specimens of Nannospalax were collected at 8 different localities in the region. Preparations of mitotic chromosomes were obtained from bone marrows by means of the general air-drying technique. Skins and skulls of specimens have been deposited at the Dicle University, Science Faculty Biology Department. We have identified two chromosomal forms of Nannospalax in East Anatolia of which have diploid chromosome numbers (2n) are 2n = 48 and 2n = 50

    A comparative morphological and karyological study on hedgehogs, erinaceus concolor and hemiechinus auritus (insectivora: mammalia) in Diyarbakir province
    (Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam Üniversitesi, 2012-02-09) Ulutürk, Servet; Coşkun, Yüksel
    In this study, we examined the morphological and karyological characteristics of Hemiechinus auritus and Erinaceus concolor (4 male, 3 female) in Diyarbakır province. The karyotypes of E. concolor (2n = 48) and H. auritus (2n = 48) were found similar and but distinctly all the autosomal chromosomes of both species were determined to be biarmed in contrast to the some previously published accounts. There are obvious differences on the tooth roots that could be used in key to genera between Hemiechinus and Erinaceus are determined by the results of this study.

    Ankara-Beypazarı Sekli ve Hırkatepe köylerinde Kızıl Geyikler (Cervus elaphus, Linneaeus 1758) üzerine gözlemler
    (Bartın Üniversitesi, 2019-04-15) Ulutürk, Servet; Yürümez, Gökhan
    Ankara Beypazarı ilçesine bağlı Sekli ve Hırkatepe köyleri civarında kızıl geyiklerin tespit edildiği 7 farklı gözlem alanında türün yavrulama ve üreme dönemleri dikkate alınarak Mayıs, Haziran, Ağustos, Eylül ve Ekim 2015 aylarında izleme çalışması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Arazi çalışmaları ile yapılan gözlemlerde toplam 68 birey doğrudan fotoğraflanarak veya kurulan kamera tuzakları ile görüntülenmiştir. Gözlem alanlarında kamera tuzakları ile 356 kızıl geyik kaydı elde edilmiş ve çalışmada başarı oranı 2,52 fotoğraf/100 fotokapan-gün değeri olarak hesaplanmıştır. Mayıs ayında geyiklerin kamera tuzaklarına yakalanma oranı oldukça fazlayken bu oran Haziran, Temmuz ve Ağustos aylarında yok denecek kadar azalmıştır. Yapılan bu çalışmalar ile türün popülasyon trendi dışında türü tehdit eden faktörlerde ele alınmıştır.
