Generation length of the world's amphibians and reptiles
Ecography, Volume 2025, Issue 7, July 2025.Variation in life histories influences demographic processes, from adaptive changes to population declines leading to extinction. Among life history traits, generation length offers a critical feature to forecast species' demographic trajectories such as population declines (widely used by the IUCN Red List) and adaptability to environmental change ...

Phallus eversion sexing in Phrynops geoffroanus (Testudines: Chelidae): a new non-invasive approach
Brazilian Journal of Biology, 2021 The sexing of species is an important tool for population management. In tortoises and turtles, sexing is usually done according to secondary characteristics, such as plastron morphology or phallus eversion techniques.

Sexing freshwater turtles: penile eversion in Phrynops tuberosus (Testudines: Chelidae)
Acta Herpetologica, 2014 Here, we described a noninvasive method for sexing freshwater turtles by stimulating penile eversion. We immobilized the neck and limbs of animals using fingers and, after some seconds, turtles everted their penis.

The Anatomical Record, Volume 307, Issue 11, Page 3437-3505, November 2024.Abstract The humerus is central for locomotion in turtles as quadrupedal animals. Osteological variation across testudine clades remains poorly documented. Here, we systematically describe the humerus anatomy for all major extant turtle clades based on 38 species representing the phylogenetic and ecological diversity of crown turtles.
