Özet
Dryomys nitedula occurring in Turkish Thrace and Anatolia, and Dryomys laniger were morphologically and biometrically compared to each other. In addition, the blood serum proteins of D. nitedula and D. laniger were examined by the SDS - PAGE technique. There are very small morphological differences among the populations of D. nitedula, but the shapes of the braincase, tympanic bullae and mandible morphologically distinguished D. nitedula from D. laniger. In pair-wise biometric comparisons, nine biometric characteristics were found to differ statistically between D. nitedula (Thrace) and D. nitedula (Anatolia), 16 characteristics between D. nitedula (Turkish Thrace) and D. laniger, I I characteristics between D. nitedula (Anatolia) and D. laniger (p < 0.05). UPGMA cluster analysis established links between D. nitedula (Turkish Thrace) and D. nitedula (Anatolia) with a distance of 0.042, and D. laniger was connected to this cluster with a distance of 0.084. In the patterns of blood serum proteins, eight or nine bands were identified in the globulin zone, one band in the post-albumin and albumin zones and one or two bands in the pre-albumin zone of both species.
