N2  - Many studies have shown that ecological factors influence life story traits of animal populations. In this study, somelife history characteristics such as age, longevity, age at maturity and sexual size dimorphism were analyzed in apopulation of H.turcicus (Turkish gecko). The results have shown that maximum lifespan and age at maturity were 7and 2-3 years in this population, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference between female andmale individuals in terms of mean age and body size. A significant positive correlation was found between body sizeand age in both males and females
