AB  - In this study, skeletal muscle protein bands of the <I>Bombina bombina </I>specimens from five populations inhabiting in Turkish Thrace and Northwestern Anatolia were compared by SDS-PAGE (Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate-Poly Acrylamide Gel Electrophoresis). Totally 54 adult (26 females and 28 males) <I>B. bombina</I> specimens were used in SDS-PAGE characterization. <I>B. b. bombina</I> specimens in the Thrace group (Degirmenyeni, Buyukdoluk and Durusu populations) had 26 homologous protein bands whereas <I>B. b. arifiyensis</I> specimens in the Northwestern Anatolia group (Arifiye and Karasu) had 28 bands. It was shown that specimens of <I>B. b. arifiyensis</I> had two additional and unique bands. The results of the present study show that Thrace and Northwestern Anatolia specimens of the <I>B. bombina </I>populations in Turkey are different according to total number of skeletal muscle protein bands.
