Description:

Examination was made of the degree of differentiation - both from the age and population aspect - of dimensions and proportions and also the correlation structures in 596 skulls of common polecat, Mustela putorius L i n n a e u s, 1758, from Poland. Two local populations were distingguished - the Białowieża and Rzeszów populations, wchich exhibit certain differences in respect of the relations examined in uniform sex and age groups. Na kolekcjach czaszek tchórza zwyczajnego, M. putorius pochodzących z 6 krajowych grup populacyjnych (n=596; 372:224; Tabela 1) zbadano wpływ dymorfizmu płciowego i miejsca pochodzenia zwierzat na wymiary i proporcje czaszki (Fig. 1-5, 7; Tabela 2). Badano także związki korelacyjne wymiarów czaszki w aspekcie wiekowym i populacyjnym (Fig. 6 i 8 oraz Tabela 4 i 7-9).
