%0 Journal Article %T Population Status and Threats against Lyciasalamandra flavimembris (Marmaris Lycian Salamander) %A EYUP BA£¿KALE %J - %D 2019 %X We conducted field studies to monitor the population status of Marmaris Salamander (Lyciasalamandra flavimembris) in their known and possible distribution localities in Mu£¿la province. The population status of and threats against the species were investigated and coordinates, elevations, and micro-climatic characteristics were recorded. We found out that the species is represented by at least 13 populations in the province of Mu£¿la. Individuals prefer the areas that are more north-facing, with less sunlight and moist, and covered with vegetation where they can hide on the ground. The elevation ranged from 0 to 890 m and the mean temperature range was 8 to 18 ¡ãC during the peak of the active period. Population density is calculated as 5.6 individuals/hectare. In addition, we re-estimated the extent of occurrence and area of occupancy of Marmaris Salamanders that are 1115 km2 and 79 km2 respectively %K populasyon yo£¿unlu£¿u %K aktif periyot %K iklimsel £¿artlar %K koruma %U http://dergipark.org.tr/commagene/issue/46593/562260
