  • Age Structures and Growth Parameters of the Levantine Frog, Pelophylax Bedriagae, at Different Localities in Denizli, Turkey
    Acta Herpetologica 13(2): 147-154, 2018 DOI: 10.13128/Acta_Herpetol-21026 Age structures and growth parameters of the Levantine frog, Pelophylax bedriagae, at different localities in Denizli, Turkey Eyup Başkale*, Sevay Ayşe Ulubeli, Yakup Kaska Pamukkale University, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Department of Biology, Kınıklı Campus 20100 Pamukkale Denizli, Turkey. *Cor- responding author. E-mail: [email protected] Submitted on: 2017, 26th July; revised on: 2018, 1st January; accepted on: 2018, 20th September Editor: Rocco Tiberti Abstract. Skeletochronology is a reliable tool for assessing several parameters in amphibian populations. We used skeletochronology to determine the age structure, growth rate, age at first reproduction, and longevity of Levantine frog Pelophylax bedriagae populations from different localities in Denizli, Turkey. All examined individuals (N = 161) exhibited Lines of Arrested Growth in the bone cross-sections. Age structure and age at first reproduction were similar among localities and sexes, while longevity and growth rates showed significant variation among localities. Obtained results were compared with literature data on age-related and grow parameters in Pelophylax bedriagae and cognate species. Keywords. Skeletochronology, Levantine frog, longevity, growth rate, sexual maturity. INTRODUCTION Red List of Threatened Species because of its wide distri- bution and presumed large populations, but habitat loss Turkish water frogs were long considered as a sin- and its commercial use as food could threaten natural gle species, and Pelophylax bedriagae and Pelophylax populations (Papenfuss et al., 2009). The Levantine frog caralitanus were previously considered to be subspecies also spread outside its native range by means of sev- of Pelophylax ridibundus (Sinsch and Schneider, 1999).

  • Genetic Diversity, Population Structure and Historical Demography
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genetic diversity, population structure and historical demography of the two‑spined yellowtail stargazer (Uranoscopus cognatus) Nur Ilham Syahadah Mohd Yusof1, Tun Nurul Aimi Mat Jaafar1, Veera Vilasri2, Siti Azizah Mohd Nor3, Ying Giat Seah1,4, Ahasan Habib1,5, Li Lian Wong3, Muhd Danish‑Daniel3, Yeong Yik Sung3, Abd. Ghafar Mazlan6, Rumeaida Mat Piah1, Shahrol Idham Ismail1 & Min Pau Tan1,3* Benthic species, though ecologically important, are vulnerable to genetic loss and population size reduction due to impacts from fshing trawls. An assessment of genetic diversity and population structure is therefore needed to assist in a resource management program. To address this issue, the two‑spined yellowtail stargazer (Uranoscopus cognatus) was collected within selected locations in the Indo‑West Pacifc (IWP). The partial mitochondrial DNA cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 and the nuclear DNA recombination activating gene 1 were sequenced. Genetic diversity analyses revealed that the populations were moderately to highly diversifed (haplotype diversity, H = 0.490–0.900, nucleotide diversity, π = 0.0010–0.0034) except sampling station (ST) 1 and 14. The low diversity level, however was apparent only in the matrilineal marker (H = 0.118–0.216; π = 0.0004–0.0008), possibly due to stochastic factors or anthropogenic stressors. Population structure analyses revealed a retention of ancestral polymorphism that was likely due to incomplete lineage sorting in U. cognatus, and prolonged vicariance by the Indo‑Pacifc Barrier has partitioned them into separate stock units. Population segregation was also shown by the phenotypic divergence in allopatric populations, regarding the premaxillary protrusion, which is possibly associated with the mechanism for upper jaw movement in biomechanical feeding approaches.

The results revealed that this species did not exceed five years of age and females were larger than males, reaching 30.0 cm and 26.0 cm, respectively. The study of length-weight relationship showed that no significant difference between males and females (P>0.05). Growth performance in length (Ф/) and weight (Ф) were found to be 2.62 and 1.05, respectively. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters were found to be L∞ =35.02 cm, K=0.3424 yr-1 and to=- 1.011 yr. The rates of total mortality (Z), natural mortality (M) and fishing mortality (F) were 0.901 -1 -1 -1 yr , 0.554 yr and 0.347 yr , respectively.

  • Amphibians and Reptiles of the Mediterranean Basin
    Chapter 9 Amphibians and Reptiles of the Mediterranean Basin Kerim Çiçek and Oğzukan Cumhuriyet Kerim Çiçek and Oğzukan Cumhuriyet Additional information is available at the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.70357 Abstract The Mediterranean basin is one of the most geologically, biologically, and culturally complex region and the only case of a large sea surrounded by three continents. The chapter is focused on a diversity of Mediterranean amphibians and reptiles, discussing major threats to the species and its conservation status. There are 117 amphibians, of which 80 (68%) are endemic and 398 reptiles, of which 216 (54%) are endemic distributed throughout the Basin. While the species diversity increases in the north and west for amphibians, the reptile diversity increases from north to south and from west to east direction. Amphibians are almost twice as threatened (29%) as reptiles (14%). Habitat loss and degradation, pollution, invasive/alien species, unsustainable use, and persecution are major threats to the species. The important conservation actions should be directed to sustainable management measures and legal protection of endangered species and their habitats, all for the future of Mediterranean biodiversity. Keywords: amphibians, conservation, Mediterranean basin, reptiles, threatened species 1. Introduction The Mediterranean basin is one of the most geologically, biologically, and culturally complex region and the only case of a large sea surrounded by Europe, Asia and Africa. The Basin was shaped by the collision of the northward-moving African-Arabian continental plate with the Eurasian continental plate which occurred on a wide range of scales and time in the course of the past 250 mya [1].

  • EU Comment the EU Would Like to Commend the OIE Aquatic Animal Health Standards Commission for Its Work and for Having Taken
    Original: English February 2020 REPORT OF THE MEETING OF THE OIE AQUATIC ANIMAL HEALTH STANDARDS COMMISSION Paris, 19‒26 February 2020 ________ EU comment The EU would like to commend the OIE Aquatic Animal Health Standards Commission for its work and for having taken into consideration EU comments on the Aquatic Code and Manual submitted previously. The EU notes the reply from the Aquatic Animals Commission to some of the previous EU comments and the justification why some of those comments have not been taken into consideration. The EU only has few specific comments on this report of the February 2020 meeting of the Aquatic Animals Commission (inserted in the text below) and in general supports the proposed changes to chapters and articles presented therein. The EU would like to stress again its continued commitment to participate in the work of the OIE and to offer all technical support needed by the Aquatic Animals Commission and its ad hoc groups for future work on the Aquatic Code and Manual. OIE •12, rue de Prony • 75017 Paris • France Tel.: 33 (0)1 44 15 18 88 • Fax: 33 (0)1 42 67 09 87 • www.oie.int • [email protected] 2 The COVID-19 pandemic has made it necessary to review the arrangements for Members’ participation in international meetings, and in particular the 88th General Session of the World Assembly of Delegates of the OIE. In this context, the OIE Council held an extraordinary meeting on 6 March 2020, and decided in agreement with the Director General, that the OIE General Session for May 2020 would be restricted to Wednesday 27 May 2020 and be limited to the consideration of institutional matters (elections) and administrative matters (vote on the budget), so as to ensure the institutional functioning of the Organisation; and technical matters that require the approbation of the World Assembly on a regular annual basis, when that approbation is supported by mechanisms of technical and procedural oversight previously agreed by the World Assembly (Official Recognition of Status; Reference Centres; Register of Diagnostic Kits).
