Morphometrical analyses showed that A.amphibius populations in western part of Turkey are highly differentiated as Anatolian andThrace populations. Depend on morphometrical differentiation, we conclude that thesetwo populations, classified within two subspecies; Arvicola amphibius persicus and Arvicolaamphibius cerncavskii respectively.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessArvicolaGeometric morphometricsMorphologyThraceAnatoliaTaxonomyTaxonomic status of water vole, (Arvicola Amphibius Linneaus, 1758) in western anatoliaArticle6213113610.17350/HJSE19030000138
