Abstract

Patka gluhara (Anas platyrhynchos L.) naša je najpoznatija divlja patka, rasprostranjena gotovo po čitavom teritoriju Republike Hrvatske. U ovom istraživanju u lovnoj sezoni 2018/2019 prikupljeno je 50 uzoraka patke gluhare (28 mužjaka i 22 ženke) s područja triju županija kontinentalne Hrvatske (Zagrebačka, Ličko-senjska, Vukovarsko-srijemska). Svakoj jedinki određen je spol i izmjereni morfometrijski parametri (raspon i duljina krila, duljina i širina glave, duljina, širina i visina kljuna, duljina tijela, duljina i širina tarzusa, ukupna masa, masa trupa, srca, jetre i želuca, te randman). Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su da statistički značajne razlike u morfometrijskim osobinama između spolova nema samo kod širine tarzusa, mase srca i jetre, te kod randmana. Ostali izmjereni elementi pokazali su statistički značajnu razliku između spolova. Također, statistički značajna razlika između pojedinih lovnih područja ustanovljena je kod raspona krila, duljine tijela, duljine tarzusa, mase srca i randmana. Prosječan randman patke gluhare s područja kontinentalne Hrvatske iznosi 63,18 %, i približno je jednak kod mužjaka (63,17 %) i kod ženki (63,2 %).

Abstract (english)

The Mallard (Anas platyrhynchos L.) is our most famous wild duck, widespread almost all over the territory of Croatia. In this research, during the hunting season 2018/2019 it was collected 50 individuals (28 males and 22 females) from the three counties of continental Croatia (Zagrebačka, Ličko-senjska, Vukovarsko-srijemska). Following sex determination, the various morphometric parameters were measured in each individual (range and length wing, length and width head, length, width and height beak, body length, tarsus length and width, body weight, carcass weight, heart, liver and gizzard weight and carcass percentage. The statistically significant difference was not found in morphometric parameters between males and female in tarsus width, heart weight, liver weight and carcass percentage. The other measured parameters showed significant differences between sexes. Likewise, statistically significant differences were found between individual hunting areas in wing range, body length, tarsus length, heart weight and carcass percentage. The average carcass percentage of Mallards from continental part of Croatia is 63,18% and it is approximately the same in males (63,17%) and females (63,2%).
