Carapacial scute variation in Loggerhead Turtles,Caretta caretta

Zoology in the Middle East, 2001
Abstract The carapacial scutes of 3511 specimens of hatchling and adult Loggerhead Turtles (Caretta caretta) from five different nesting beaches in Turkey and Cyprus (Dalyan, Fethiye, Belek, Kizilot and Karpaz) were examined. Scutes were examined with regard to variation within carapacial scute series and variation in carapacial scute pattern.

Pharmacokinetics of Pradofloxacin in Loggerhead Sea Turtles (Caretta caretta) After Single Intravenous and Subcutaneous Injections

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pradofloxacin is approved orally for dogs and cats and parenterally for cattle and pigs in the U.S. The objective was to determine the pharmacokinetics of pradofloxacin in loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) and whether the plasma concentration is sufficient to treat susceptible bacteria.

Gonadal development in scorpion mud‐turtles, Kinosternon scorpioides, in a controlled environment

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 11, Page 3455-3466, November 2026.
Stage 20 was identified as the critical point for gonadal differentiation in Kinosternon scorpioides, providing key insights into sex determination. These findings enhance conservation strategies by supporting reproductive management and population viability in both in situ and ex situ programs. Abstract Research on gonadal development including sexual

Assessing the Health Impacts of Contaminants on Green Turtles (Chelonia mydas) Along the Southern Coast of Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 11, Page 1277-1288, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Chemical pollutants pose a significant threat to marine ecosystems. Among these contaminants are trace elements and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). Green turtles can be employed to evaluate the oceans' health due to their coastal habitats and exposure to multiple threats.

Clinical management of a severe skull fracture in a loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta)

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, November 2026.
Abstract A 30.6 kg loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) presented with a 2–3‐week‐old deep head wound, left neck and right cubital lacerations, and carapace fractures. Haematology revealed a marked leukocytosis, with other values unremarkable. Initial wound‐cleaning, an antibiotic course, fluids and vitamin B supplementation were initiated. Computed

Early Climate Impact Assessments Targeted 2025—How Did They Perform for Global Water Resources?

WIREs Climate Change, Volume 17, Issue 6, November/December 2026.
In 2025, it is possible to assess early climate impact projections. We review the first two global water resource assessments and find: climate variables, snowmelt‐dominated streamflow, and population projections broadly aligned with observations, but water demand projections overestimated increases in withdrawals.

Under the Skin of the Factory: The Embodied Environmental Politics of Steelworkers in Dunkerque (France) and IJmuiden (the Netherlands)

Antipode, Volume 58, Issue 6, November 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper takes the body as a focal point to deliver new insights into what drives or constrains labour environmentalism. More precisely, it looks at how labour–environment dynamics are inscribed in and negotiated through the bodies of steelworkers in IJmuiden (the Netherlands) and Hauts‐de‐France (France).

Massive consumption of gelatinous plankton by Mediterranean apex predators.

PLoS ONE, 2012
Stable isotopes of carbon and nitrogen were used to test the hypothesis that stomach content analysis has systematically overlooked the consumption of gelatinous zooplankton by pelagic mesopredators and apex predators.
