Bu çalışmada, Tepeli pelikanlarda bacak kemiklerindeki farklılıklar diğer kanatlı türleriyle karşılaştırılarak incelendi. Çalışmada, 2014-2016 yılları arasında Aksaray bölgesi gölet ve sazlık arazilerinden köylüler tarafından Aksaray Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Klinik, Teşhis ve Analiz Laboratuvarına getirilen çeşitli sebeplerden ölmüş üç adet erişkin (3 adet dişi) tepeli pelikan incelendi. Kemiklerin maserasyonu, maserasyon tekniklerine uygun olarak yapıldı. Bacak kemikleri os coxae, femur, patella, tibiotarsus, fibula ve ossa digitorum pedis kemiklerinden meydana getirmekteydi. Ossa tarsi kemikleri tespit edilemedi. Femur, kısa vaziyette tibia’nın yaklaşık 3/4’ü uzunluğundaydı. Femur’un distal kısmnda patella, sulcus patellaris olarak tibiotarsus’un proksimal’inde oval olarak yer almaktaydı. Tibiotarsus’un caput tibiae kısmında crista cnemialis cranialis ve crista cnemialis lateralis adında keskin ve dışbükey iki çıkıntı bulunmaktaydı. Tarsometatarsus kemiği rudimenter olan os metatarsale I ile esas metatarsus kemiğini oluşturan os metatarsale II, os metatarsale III ve os metatarsale IV ile tarsal kemiklerin distal sırasında yer alan kemiklerin birleşmesinden oluşmaktaydı. Tepeli pelikanlarda medial’den lateral’e doğru ossa digitorum pedis kemikleri olarak dört parmak tespit edildi. Sonuç olarak, Aksaray bölgesindeki Tepeli pelikanların makroanatomik yapısı diğer kanatlı türlerinden farklı özelliklere sahipti.
In this study, differences in the hind limb bones of crested pelicans in comparison to other avian species were assessed. In the study, the bodies of 3 adult female crested pelicans which died due to the different reasons were used. The samples originated from the ponds and reedy lands in Aksaray region and were submitted by the villagers to Aksaray University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine Clinic, Diagnosis, and Analysis Lab. The adventure of the bones was done according to the adventure techniques. The hind limb skeleton was formed by os coxae, femur, patella, tibiotarsus, fibula, ossa digitorum pedis. Ossa tarsi bones were not observed. Femur was short and has a length of approximately 3/4 of the length of tibia. On the distal part of femur, patella with its sulcus patellaris were present elliptically on the proximal of tibiotarsus. Two sharp and convex protrusions named crista cnemialis cranialis and crista cnemialis lateralis on the part of caput tibia of the tibiotarsus were present . Tarsometatarsus bone was formed by the fusion of the rudimentary os metatarsale I and the bones os metatarsale II, III, V forming the main metatarsus bone, and the distal tarsal bones. In crested pelicans four digits from medial to lateral as ossa digitorum pedis were observed. As a result, the macroanatomical structure of crested pelicans in the Aksaray region had distinct features from other bird species.
