Öğe Comparison of lyciasalamandra atifi (basoglu, 1967) (urodela: Salamandridae) populations with description of three new subspecies from Antalya Province(Editura Universitaria Craiova, 2016) Oğuz M.A.; Göçmen B.; Yalçinkaya D.We compared the isolated populations of Lyciasalamandra atifi, (Basoglu, 1967) a salamander endemic to the historic Lycia region of Turkey, that is found across a range from Antalya/Selge (Altinkaya) to Antalya/Gazipasa. Along this distance, we determined eight isolated populations (Selge, Fersin, Dikmen, Guzelbag, Turbelinaz, Gundogmus, Cebireis, Gazipasa) in 2013 and used morphology and serology to compare them. The collected specimens were registered under the ZMADYU (Zoology Museum of Adiyaman University), and a total of 237 (59 >>, 96 ++, 82 juv.) specimens were studied. As a result of our research, three new subspecies are described: Lyciasalamandra atifi godmanni n. ssp. from Selge, Lyciasalamandra atifi veithi n. ssp. from Dikmen and Lyciasalamandra atifi kunti n. ssp. from Guzelbag. Except Cebireis (L. a. bayrami) and Gazipasa (L. a. oezi) populations, the other isolated populations were incorporated in the nominat subspecies due to morphological and serological similarities. © South west J Hortic Biol Environ.Öğe A new Lycian Salamander, threatened with extinction, from the Göynük Canyon (Antalya, Anatolia), Lyciasalamandra irfani n. sp. (Urodela: Salamandridae)(Editura Universitati din Oradea, 2011) Göçmen B.; Arikan H.; Yalçinkaya D.A new species of the Lycian Salamander, Lyciasalamandra irfani n. sp. is described and its relation with similar previously known taxa is discussed. The new species characterized by having rather darkly coloured head part and also an aubergine reddish brown ground colour on dorsum with irregularly scattered white flecks. It originates from Göynük Canyon (Antalya) in southwestern Anatolia. At present, the distribution is limited to its type locality. Some information is added in regard to its habitat. © 2011 NwjZ, Oradea, Romania.Öğe A new subspecies from Anatolia, Acanthodactylus schreiberi Boulenger, 1879 ataturi n. ssp. (Squamata: Lacertidae)(2012) Yalçinkaya D.; Göçmen B.A new subspecies the Acanthodactylus schreiberi, A. s. ataturi n. ssp., is being described from Anatolia which differs from the nominate subspecies A. s. schreiberi Boulenger, 1879 of Cyprus island and A. s. syriacus Böttger, 1878 from Lebanon and Israel. Compared to the later two populations, A. s. ataturi n. spp. is different in having 'half-domes' (protuberant) above the eyes (71.4%), one or two additional small plates between the prefrontals in the majority of examined specimens (73.6%). It is also differs in having no distinctly keeled dorsal and temporal scales, and also the presence of small-sized dorsal maculations (based on the average numbers of scales within dorsal maculations) from A. s. syriacus and A. s. schreiberi, respectively. The obtained electropherograms of the examined blood-serum protein samples showed important qualitative differences between the Cypriot and Anatolian populations; in the Cypriot samples the total protein fraction number was 13-14, while in Anatolian samples the number between 14 and 16, indicating the difference. It is also stressed that the only known biotope of the subspecies in Anatolia is now under grave habitat destruction, which should cease immediately to safeguard the future of the subspecies. © Biharean Biologist, Oradea, Romania, 2012.Öğe Range extension of lyciasalamandra antalyana (Basoglu & Baran, 1976) (Amphibia: Urodela: Salamandridae)(2013) Akman B.; Göçmen B.; IgcI N.; Yalçinkaya D.We report 17 specimens of the Lycian salamander Lyciasalamandra antalyana, endemic to Turkey from Burdur province, in the western Mediterranean region of Anatolia. Previously all known localities for L. antalyana were in Antalya province. These new records extend the known distribution area of the species to Burdur province in Turkey. These new specimens were compared with L. antalyana specimens from some other known localities (Hurma and Yagca populations) in terms of morphological and serological features. According to coloration and metric characters, our specimens can be included in L. antalyana. This paper represents a considerable range extension for this species, 32 km air distance to the north-east and reports L. antalyana from Burdur province for the first time. ©Biharean Biologist, Oradea, Romania, 2013.Öğe Range extension of Lyciasalamandra atifi (Başoglu, 1967) (Amphibia: Urodela: Salamandridae)(Editura Universitati din Oradea, 2011) Akman B.; Yalçinkaya D.; Kariş M.; Göçmen B.Additional data on the distribution of the terrestrial salamander Lyciasalamandra atifi, endemic to Turkey, are presented, based on fieldwork conducted in 2011. Five new localities situated around the Cebireis Mountain (Cebel-i Reis, Alanya, Antalya) were recorded. These represent a considerable range extension for both species and genus, around 35 km air distance to the south-east. © NwjZ, Oradea, Romania, 2011.Öğe Rediscovery of the snake genus Eirenis on Cyprus (Reptilia: Colubridae)(2009) Schmidtler J.F.; Göçmen B.; Yildiz M.Z.; Akman B.; Yalçinkaya D.; Nagy Z.T.In April 2007, three Eirenis (Pediophis) levantinus SCHMIDTLER, 1993 were collected in the western part of the Kyrenia Mountains near Lapethos, Cyprus, in a Mediterranean mountainous forest. It is the first collection since KOTSCHY'S expeditions ca. 150 years ago. Like most new (re) discoveries of snakes on Cyprus (Hierophis cypriensis, Natrix natrix cypriaca, Platyceps najadum), this species must be consi-dered as rare, with a restricted distribution area. Dwarf snakes were first recorded from Cyprus (identified as Ablabes modestus) by STEINDACHNER (1863) and UNGER & KOTSCHY (1866). A further specimen was even depicted by JAN & SORDELLI (1866; under the name "Eirenis collaris"), but no exact localities were given. Subsequently dwarf snakes were treated as erroneously reported or simply forgotten, due to the lack of more recent observations. The specimens recently found by us, morphologically (pileus pattern) as well as genetically (cytochrome b sequences), resemble Eirenis levantinus, and they are especially similar to the specimens inhabiting the opposite eastern Turkish mainland (Amanos and Misis mountains, respectively). The possibilities of immigration over a Kyrenia-Misis land bridge in the "Kyrenian-Misis zone" or by passive dispersion are briefly discussed. A further dwarf snake taxon - excellently depicted and originating from Cyprus, but forgotten later on (JAN & SORDELLI 1866: " Eirenis modestus var. quadrilineata") - may be identical to or closely related to the mainland species Eirenis (Eoseirenis) decemlineatus (DUMÉRIL & BIBRON, 1854). © 2009 Deutsche Gesellschaft für Herpetologie und Terrarienkunde e.V.

Dr. Bayram Göçmen (1965-2019)(Editura Universitatii din Oradea, 2019) Yildiz M.Z.; Gürelli G.; Yalçinkaya D.; Akman B.; Iğci N.; Kariş M.; Oğuz M.If there was something written to my destiny: "Biology / Zoology is not a profession for me, it is my lifestyle. My feelings, approaches, and reactions are coming out of this lifestyle. If you want to learn something, experience it! If you take nature as an example, there is no chance of making a mistake! That is the right way!" . Prof. Dr. Bayram Göçmen. We (and many people around the world who know him) are in deep sorrow to have lost Prof. Dr. Bayram Göçmen, who passed away on 22 March 2019. He will always be remembered with his passion to biology, his invaluable works, and the students he left behind. © NWJZ, Oradea, Romania, 2019.
