Humans have begun to make collections with many living and
lifeless samples that they have collected from the very nature of the past as a
result of day-to-day curiosity. Thanks to these collections, many living
creatures are playing an important role in introducing them to future
generations. For this reason, it is necessary to increase the studies about the
discovery of inventories in the Zoological Museums and presenting them to the
scientific world.
In this study, the inventories of amphibian and reptile
specimens preserved in Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University Zoology Museum
(COMU-ZM) were established within the scope of the projects and scientific
studies carried out since 2003. A total of 316 specimens 16 different species
including Amphibia, a total of 918 specimens 66 different species belonging to
the Reptilia have been identified at the Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart University
Zoology Museum (COMU-ZM). As a result of this work, museum records of amphibian
and reptile species in Turkey will form the basis of scientific studies.
