Özet
This research was based on some characteristics of the erythrocyte and leukocyte cells of 9 Miniopterus schreibersii (female female) samples collected from Balikesir Province in Turkey between July 2015 and September 2016. Bats were caught from an artificial cave using special nets. Blood was taken in heparinized hematocrit tubes from the forearm or tail membrane in the laboratory and the blood smears were prepared. The erythrocyte and leukocyte counts, hemoglobin concentration, and hematocrit values in the blood were determined. In M. schreibersii, the number of erythrocytes in 1 mm(3) of blood was between 7.5 and 10 million, and the mean value was 8.8 million. The diameter values of the erythrocyte, monocyte, lymphocyte, eosinophil, neutrophil, and basophil cells were measured as 5.65, 9.66, 8.4, 8.66,10, and 8.5 mu m, respectively. Blood values of M. schreibersii were recorded for the first time in this study in Anatolia.
