The populations were found to show great intra- and interpopulation variation in their pattern and colour characteristics and in their serological analyses, while their morphometric characteristics were found to be similar. It is thus concluded that, for the present, it is not possible to separate them into different subspecies. © 2001 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.en10.1080/09397140.2001.10637867info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBlood serum proteinsGeographic variationMediterranean areaMiddle EastMorphologyTurkeyArticle2315560Q2
