|
Testudinidae Fifteen adult Testudo specimens (Testudo hermanni and Testudo graeca) of Thrace Region (Turkey) were examined for 10 hematological parameters; Red Blood Cell count (RBC), hematocrit value (PCV), Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV), Hemoglobin Concentration (HbC), Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH), Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC), blood cell (erythrocyte-leukocyte-thrombocyte) measurements and leukocyte formules. Of the investigation species, the widest and largest sized erythrocytes belong to T. hermanni, while the smallest sized erythrocytes is found T. graeca. Erythrocytes count and hemoglobin of T. graeca are found in more than T. hermanni. These hematological values were compared to those obtained from other Chelonia species.
