Liliecii – prietenii noștri neștiuți

“…În cazul când un individ este greu de identificat, acesta se colectează și se efectuează măsurători biometrice suplimentare: lungimea și greutatea corpului, lungimea cozii, lungimea urechii, tragusului, anvergura aripii, lungimea antebrațului, lungimea falangelor etc. În măsurătorile morfologice se utilizează șublerul și balanța, iar pentru identificarediverse determinatoare (Valenciuc, 2002;Decu ș.a., 2003;Dietz, Helversen, 2004; Murariu ș.a., 2016). Cercetările morfologice sunt cele mai potrivite în perioada de hibernare, deoarece animalele sunt inactive, nu manifestă agresivitate, iar după manipulări ei revin ușor la starea de hibernare, nivelul de stres fiind redus.…”

Türkiye’nin Kuzeybatısından Plecotus auritus (Linnaeus, 1758)’a Ait Yeni Bir Yayılış Kaydı ve Bazı Biyoekolojik Özellikleri (Chiroptera: Vespertilionidae)

“…In order to take the morphometric measurements of the skull, the skull was heated in 10% ammonia solution in a 70 °C water bath in plastic boxes and cleaned. According to Dietz & Helverson (2004), in addition to weight following external measurements and according to Häussler & Brown (1991), 12 morphometric measurements of skulls were measured. Abbreviations for method: TBL=Total body length, TL= tail length, HF= hind foot length, EL= ear length, TrL= tragus length, TrW= tragus width, FL= forearm length (including carpals), ThL= thumb length, TiL= tibia length, D3= 3rd digit length D5= 5th digit length, CBL= condylobasal length, GLS= Greatest length of skull, IO= interorbital width, ZB= zygomatic breadth, SH= skull height (including tympanic bulla), MB= mastoid breadth, LBT= length (largest diameter) of tympanic bulla ML= Mandible length, CM 3 = maxillary toothrow length, CM3= mandibulary toothrow length, W= weight.…”

Previously published studies (Stebbings, 1977;Albayrak, 1990;Benda & Horáček, 1998;Karataş et al, 2003;Dietz & von Helverson, 2004;Spitzenberger et al, 2006) were used for the identification of the specimen and for evaluations. The external standard measurements were measured with the steel scale and the morphometric measurements of the skull were measured using the open-source FIJI image program in the photographs taken (Schindelin et al, 2012).…”

“…The dorsal fur color of Plecotus auritus ranges from light brown, brown, to reddish brown (Dietz & von Helverson, 2004), pale yellowish gray-brown (Albayrak, 1991), light brown (Karataş et al, 2003), to light buff or brown to gray (Swift, 1998). Ventral fur color can vary from yellowishbrown (Dietz & von Helverson, 2004) to whitish gray or whitish straw gray (Albayrak, 1991). The boundary between dorsal and ventral coloration in the flanks is absent (Dietz & von Helverson, 2004).…”

“…Ventral fur color can vary from yellowishbrown (Dietz & von Helverson, 2004) to whitish gray or whitish straw gray (Albayrak, 1991). The boundary between dorsal and ventral coloration in the flanks is absent (Dietz & von Helverson, 2004). The present study revealed similar fur color peculiarities for P. auritus as reported by Dietz & von Helverson (2004).…”
