Abstract
- In this study, some life history characteristics (27 adult and 7 subadult specimens) of a highland population (Sütçüler) of the Lacerta pamphylica species in Isparta province of Türkiye were investigated by applying the skeletochronology method. The mean age and SVL values were 5.67 ± 0.50 years and 106.28 ± 2.25 mm in adult males and 5.33 ± 0.46 years and 102.65 ± 2.65 mm in adult females in the population. The age range varies between 3–10 years in males and 3–8 years in females. The age of subadult males and subadult females was 2 years. The presented study provides information on the age of the species Lacerta pamphylica for the first time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
