The is one of the native and endangered species of the Salamandridae family, which is restricted to the mountainous habitats of southern Lorestan and northern Khuzestan. The presence of this species in the environment and the risks surrounding the extinction and health of this species make it necessary to produce basic anatomical information. The present study investigated the typical morphological characteristics of normal, mature, and healthy Luristan newt () vertebral column using a micro-CT scan. The samples were entered into the micro-CT scan machine one by one in a ventral recumbency. The typical morphological characteristics of normal, mature, and healthy Luristan newt () vertebral column were examined. It was specified that the Luristan newt () has one cervical vertebra (atlas), 12 trunk vertebrae, one sacral vertebra, 3 caudosacral vertebrae, and 28 to 31 caudal vertebrae. This study presents a complete and precise description evaluation of Luristan newt () vertebral column using a micro-CT scan. No specimen was killed, and anatomical studies were conducted through a micro-CT scan technique as an essential feature of the present study.
该物种是蝾螈科的本土濒危物种之一,仅分布于洛雷斯坦省南部和胡齐斯坦省北部的山区栖息地。该物种在环境中的存在以及围绕其灭绝和健康的风险使得有必要提供基本的解剖学信息。本研究使用微计算机断层扫描(micro-CT)对正常、成熟且健康的卢里斯坦蝾螈()脊柱的典型形态特征进行了研究。样本以腹卧位逐个进入微计算机断层扫描仪。对正常、成熟且健康的卢里斯坦蝾螈()脊柱的典型形态特征进行了检查。结果表明,卢里斯坦蝾螈()有1个颈椎(寰椎)、12个躯干椎、1个骶椎、3个尾骶椎和28至31个尾椎。本研究使用微计算机断层扫描对卢里斯坦蝾螈()脊柱进行了完整而精确的描述性评估。未处死任何标本,作为本研究的一个重要特征,解剖学研究是通过微计算机断层扫描技术进行的。
