Özet
In this study, 10 adult Turkish Spiny Mice (Acomys cilicicus) and 10 adult Cypriot Spiny Mice (Acomy nesiotes) were used. After the coloured latex injection, the morphological and morphometrical properties of the dissected vessels were determined. In both mice species, similar to rat and mice, it was seen that 3 main branches including brachiocephalic artery, left common carotid artery and left subclavin artery orginated from aortic arch. The morphometric differences between the two species were throught to be caused by the adaptation to the environment of the island and continent forms.
