Altitudinal effects on the life history of the Anatolian lizard ( Apathya cappadocica , Werner 1902) from southeastern Anatolia, Turkey

Öz:
Altitudinal gradients are an important variable in testing the life history traits (e.g., longevity, age at maturity, and bodysize) of organisms. In this study, the life history traits of the Anatolian lizard Apathya cappadocica were examined from 3 populationsfrom diferent altitudes (Kilis, 697 m; Şanlıurfa, 891 m; Diyarbakır, 1058 m) from southeastern Anatolia, Turkey. Age structure wasdetermined by using skeletochronology. Males in all populations were the larger sex; therefore, the populations showed male biasesthat were negative by the sexual size dimorphism index. Males in Diyarbakır (high altitude) were also younger than males in the otherpopulations. Tere were no signifcant diferences between the males and females of all 3 populations in terms of either age or snoutvent length except in the Şanlıurfa population, in which males were larger than females. Life history traits of A. cappadocica acrossaltitudinal gradients may be afected by climatic factors, as males from the middle altitude population in Şanlıurfa, which inhabits awarmer and more arid environment, tended to be larger than males and females in Kilis and Diyarbakır.
