The Eurasian water frog species and their geographic ranges have undergone considerable changes in the last four decades, but Iranian populations largely remained unknown. All of frogs, despite vast distribution range attributed to a single species: Rana ridibunda. In order understand phylogenetic relationships taxonomic status frogs Iran, we collected samples from many across country used mitochondrial DNA sequence variation. A data set with final length 616 nucleotides was generated for...
Although the phylogenetic relationship of Western Palearctic brown frogs has been repeatedly studied, taxonomic status and Anatolian-Hyrcanian is still not fully resolved. Here, we assess these species among with special emphasize on Iranian populations based two partial mitochondrial DNA sequences (16S rRNA cytochrome b genes) application a molecular clock. Our results clearly show that underwent basal radiation in to main monophyletic clades, European plus Asian R. asiatica frogs, during...
The aim of this study was to bring new information regarding the feeding one water frog species, Pelophylax ridibundus (marsh frog). Field surveys were carried out at 19 locations in 12 Iranian provinces. We examined food composition marsh frog, throughout distribution rang Iran. stomach contents collected by using flushing method, 129 (68 males, 61 females) adult individuals investigated, and 738 preys pertaining nine prey classes detected, predominantly terrestrial, within diet a P....
Life history of the Levant water frog, Pelophylax bedriagae (Amphibia: Anura: Ranidae) in western Iran

Abstract Iranian long legged wood frog, Rana pseudodalmatina Eiselt & Schmidtler, 1971 is a brown frog species endemic to the Hyrcanian forest. The objective of present study collect detailed information on feeding habits 44 specimens this (24 ♂, 20 ♀) by analyzing stomach contents individuals from 10 populations inhabiting range. food habit R. generally varies availability surrounding prey items, and it foraging predator, which consists largely Coleoptera (mainly Carabidae, Dytiscidae...
The life-history of an organism consists its lifetime pattern growth, development, storage, age, and reproduction. In this study, some traits Hyla savignyi were studied in populations from different parts Iran. microscopic macroscopic analysis showed that testicular activity H. is potentially continuous, reaching peak level April. Metamorphosis was completed approximately 102 days after egg deposition, body size at metamorphosis 10 mm. Significant sexual dimorphism present all populations, a...

چکیده گونۀ Rana macrocnemis در قفقاز و آسیای صغیر شمالغرب غرب ایران پراکنش گستردهای دارد. جمعیتهای ایرانی قورباغههای قهوهای باوجود گسترده کمتر موردتوجه پژوهشگران قرار گرفتهاند. پژوهش حاضر با نمونهبرداری گسترده از کل محدودۀ قورباغۀ کوهستانی به ارزیابی ساختار تغییرات جغرافیایی صفتها جمعیتها پرداخته شد. بهمنظور مطالعههای ریختشناسی، 13 صفت ریختسنجی اندازشی مجموع 85 نمونه بررسی شدند. اهمیت آماری وجود دوریختی جنسی بین قفقازی کمک آزمون ANOVA مقایسۀ تفاوت میانگینهای هر دو جنس نر...
