SPIRORCHIDIASIS IN LOGGERHEAD SEA TURTLES (CARETTA CARETTA): PATHOLOGY

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1982
Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) from the Atlantic seaboard (Florida to Massachusetts) were examined at the Marine Pathology Laboratory, University of Rhode Island, from March through December, 1980. Three genera of blood flukes (spirorchids) were found in 14 (33%) of the 43 turtles.

Multiple Paternity in the Loggerhead Turtle (Caretta caretta)

Journal of Heredity, 1988
Genotypic ratios within clutches of loggerhead turtle (Caretta caretta) embryos, from the Mon Repos rookery (Queensland), deviate significantly from the Mendelian ratios expected on the null hypothesis of single paternity. One-third of all clutches provide evidence for multiple insemination, indicating that multiple mating constitutes the major ...

Respiratory mechanics of the loggerhead sea turtle, Caretta caretta

Respiration Physiology, 1989
Respiratory mechanics were evaluated in excised lungs and in spontaneously breathing loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta). Respiratory compliance curves reflect the pressure volume characteristics of the body wall. Compliance values are comparable to those of reptiles having simpler lung structure.

Nest placement by loggerhead turtles, Caretta caretta

Animal Behaviour, 1993
Abstract Abstract. Nest placement by loggerhead turtles nesting on the island of Cephalonia, Greece, was examined. The spatial distribution of nests was not uniform (N = 27 nests): they tended to be laid away from the sea, but not in vegetation that backed the beach.

Ultrasonographic imaging of loggerhead sea turtles ( Caretta caretta )

Veterinary Record, 2007
Twenty live and five dead juvenile and subadult loggerhead sea turtles were examined ultrasonographically. Ten soft tissue areas of the integument were used as acoustic windows: cervical‐dorsal and cervical‐ventral, left and right cervicobrachial, left and right axillary, left and right prefemoral and left and right postfemoral windows.

The Use of DNA Microsatellite Loci for “Caretta Caretta” Identification

Journal of Environmental Science and Health, Part A, 2006
Caretta carettas, one of the members of Chelonidae family, live primarily in water, except the periods of their ovulation where they come out to the shores to lay their eggs. Following an incubation period of 50-60 days, the newborns return to sea water to continue their 10-12-year life.
