To the Problem of Terminology Unification in Amphibian Anomaly Classifications

KnE Life Sciences / The Second International Conference on Amphibian and Reptiles Anomalies and Pathology / Pages 13–16

Abstract

The article is devoted to the unification of the terminology used in the description of amphibian abnormalities. The author proposes using only medical and zoological terms to denominate both skeletal and other kinds of anomalies. The article describes defects in the form of a formula that contains the disorder name, its symmetry and location on the body. The latter requires highly detailed elements of the structure of an animal for recording anomalies in a shared database.
