Popis: Humans have begun to make collections with many living and lifeless samples that they have collected from the very nature of the past as a result of day-to-day curiosity. Thanks to these collections, many living creatures are playing an important role in introducing them to future generations.

In this study, the inventories of amphibian and reptile specimens preserved in Canakkale Onsekiz Mart University Zoology Museum (COMU-ZM) were established within the scope of the projects and scientific studies carried out since 2003.
