Abstract     
A total of 219 Emys orbicularis specimens collected at 7 localities featuring different ecological and geographical characteristics in western and central Anatolia were examined. The 25 different ratios were compared to investigate the morphological differences and similarities among populations. Male - female sex ratios and growth parameters (W=aLb) were also considered. A discriminant analysis based on these 14 morphometric characters and 25 ratios clearly confirmed the differences between the E. orbicularis specimens from the Aegean and Central Anatolian regions. The Boget specimens also differentiate statistically from those in Mogan (about 180 km north of Boget) and Kayseri (about 230 km east of Boget). The factors threatened the Boget population were also determined.
