چکیده مقاله:

Neurergus kaiseri an endemic and endangered species belonging to the family Salmandridae inhabits in the limited habitats of Lorestan Province and the northern Khuzestan Province, the Zagros Mountains. Neurergus kaiseri is distinguished from the other species of the genus Neurergus by black spots and an orange dorsal line. In this study, skeletal structures of this species were studied by digital radiology, because the photographic techniques such as radiography can be used for the description of the anatomy and thus help to the preservation of species. The specimens were collected from the Korki habitat in Lorestan Province in the winter and spring seasons of 2018, with the coordination of the Department of Environment, then they were transferred with appropriate conditions to the hospital. The radiographs were taken by the mammography device in dorsoventral view. After radiography, the specimens were delivered to the Department of Environment for release in their habitat. Morphometric and morphologic studies were done on the radiographs by the RadiAnt DICOM Viewer software. The results showed the differences and similarities between male and female specimens including the higher proportion of traits of skull width, tail length, and length of forelimb to snout-sacral vertebrae length in the males than females.
