Abstract

Socijalnost se izražava učestalošću interakcija neke jedinke s drugim jedinkama svoje vrste, a način na koji je socijalna struktura životinja uređena promatramo kroz grupacije i zajednice. U životinjskom svijetu, jedinke podnose prisutnost druge jedinke u svojoj blizini i stupaju u interakcije s njima zbog postojanja tolerancije, bez koje ne postoji socijalnost. Mjere socijalnosti mogu varirati ovisno o literaturnom izvoru, ali jedan od boljih je Wilsonovih 10 kvaliteta koje predstavljaju okvir pomoću kojeg se kvalificira socijalnost neke vrste. Gmazovi i vodozemci nisu česta tema znanstvenika koji proučavaju socijalnost životinja, tako da je njihova socijalnost slabo istražena. Ipak, postoje evidentirani primjeri razvijene socijalnosti kod gmazova i vodozemaca. Kod gmazova je rod Egernia primjer kako nastaju evolucijski složeniji, monogamni socijalni sustavi, krokodili kooperativno love i kooperativno čuvaju legla, a u kornjača je prisutno hijerarhijsko socijalno uređenje. U vodozemaca je Hamiltonova žaba (Leiopelma hamiltoni) primjer kako se jedinke u zaklonima asociraju u bliskom fizičkom kontaktu, a iberski vodenjak (Lissotriton boscai) putem mirisa bira odlaziti na mjesta na kojima se nalaze njihovi srodnici. Cilj ovog rada bio je prikazati načine na koje gmazovi i vodozemci pokazuju svoju socijalnost.

Abstract (english)

Sociality is expressed in the frequency of interactions among individuals of the same species, and the arrangement of the animal social structure is observed through groups and communities. In the animal world, individuals tolerate the presence of other individuals in their vicinity and interact with them due to the existence of tolerance, without which there is no sociality. Measures of sociality can vary depending on the literature source, but one of the better ones is Wilson's 10 qualities, which present a framework by which sociality of some species is qualified. Reptiles and amphibians are not a common topic for scientists who study animal sociality, so their sociality is poorly researched. However, there are recorded examples of developed sociality in reptiles and amphibians. In reptiles, the genus Egernia is an example of how evolutionarily more complex, monogamous social systems are formed, crocodiles hunt cooperatively and cooperatively guard their broods, and turtles have a hierarchical social arrangement. Among amphibians, Hamilton's frog (Leiopelma hamiltoni) is an example of how individuals in shelters associate in close physical contact, and the Bosca's newt (Lissotriton boscai) chooses, by smell, to go to places where their conspecifics are. The aim of this paper was to show the ways in which reptiles and amphibians show their sociality.
