Abstract

The present study was designed to obtain information about life history traits of Lacerta viridis in the Belen population with an altitude of 292 m. In the adult sample (21 males and 15 females), the age ranged from 3 – 10 (X = = 6.97) years for both sexes collectively, 5 – 10 (X = 7.43) years in males, 3 – 8 (X = 6.33) years in females and not differed significantly between sexes. Age at sexual maturity was 2 – 3 years for both sexes. However, a confirmation is required with some sexual characters (e.g., the presence of eggs for female, developed hemipenes for male) for age at sexual maturity in both sexes. The mean body size (SVL) was not significantly different between sexes. There was no correlation between SVL and age for males while there was a positive correlation for females. A male-biased sexual size dimorphism (SSD = 0.07) was observed in the population of L. viridis.

土耳其绿色蜥蜴Lacerta viridis种群的年龄结构和体型(Laurenti,1768)
本研究旨在获得海拔292米的贝伦种群中病毒莱塞塔生活史特征的信息。在成年样本(21名男性和15名女性)中,性别的年龄范围为3-10(X==6.97)岁,男性为5-10(X=7.43)岁,女性为3-8(X=6.33)岁,性别之间没有显著差异。两性性成熟年龄均为2-3岁。然而,对于两性性成熟的年龄,需要对一些性特征进行确认(例如,女性有卵子,男性有发育的半萜)。平均体型(SVL)在性别之间没有显著差异。男性的SVL与年龄之间没有相关性,而女性则呈正相关。在绿色乳杆菌种群中观察到雄性偏性大小二型性(SSD=0.07)。
