Some Aspects of Electrolyte Excretion in the Green Turtle, Chelonia Mydas Mydas

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1964
ABSTRACT The ‘salt gland’ appears to be the predominant route of sodium and potassium excretion in the marine turtle Chelonia mydas mydas. The kidney of the marine turtle is probably not capable of maintaining a positive water balance in the face of the electrolyte loads presented by sea water and food.

Pulmonary function of the green sea turtle, Chelonia mydas

Journal of Applied Physiology, 1987
Lung volumes, oxygen uptake (VO2), end-tidal PO2, and PCO2, diffusing capacity of the lungs for CO (DLCO), pulmonary blood flow (QL) and respiratory frequency were measured in the green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) (49–127 kg body wt). Mean lung volume (VL) determined from helium dilution was 57 ml/kg and physiological dead space volume (VD) was about ...

Chelonid Alphaherpesvirus 5 DNA in Fibropapillomatosis-Affected Chelonia mydas

EcoHealth, 2019
Fibropapillomatosis is a panzootic and chronic disease among Chelonia mydas-usually associated with anthropogenic impacts. This study contributes towards understanding fibropapillomatosis implications for C. mydas populations as a reflector of environmental quality, via prevalence and histological, molecular and blood analyses at a World Heritage site ...

Bacterial diversity of the green turtle (Chelonia mydas) nest environment

Science of The Total Environment, 2020
The green turtle is an endangered species that is highly sensitive to environmental pollution that can adversely affect the healthy development of eggs. Moreover, the presence of some bacteria in nests can be regarded as an indicator of the pollution level in nesting areas.

Tuberculosis in Pacific Green Sea Turtles, Chelonia mydas

Transactions of the American Fisheries Society, 1976
Abstract Six cases of tuberculosis were found in captive Pacific green sea turtles, Chelonia mydas. The diagnoses were based on detection of gross lesions in lungs and livers, positive acid-fast bacilli in impression smears, characteristic lesions on microscopic examinations of tissues, and the isolation of the bacilli.

Corneal Fibropapillomatosis in Green Sea Turtles (Chelonia mydas) in Australia

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2010
Chelonid corneal fibropapillomatosis has not previously been recorded in Australian waters. During 2008, 724 green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) were examined in Queensland, Australia at two sites, Moreton Bay (n=155) and Shoalwater Bay (n=569), during annual monitoring. In the same calendar year, 63 turtles were submitted from various sites in southern

Regional endothermy in the sea turtle, Chelonia mydas

Journal of Thermal Biology, 1982
Abstract 1. 1.|The green turtle, Chelonia mydas , exhibits a unique combination of thermoregulatory adaptations. Temperature data obtained by mutlichannel telemetry indicate that it is a regional endotherm. 2. 2.|A turtle swimming vigorously had a body temperature (pectoral region) of 37.1°C in water at 29.1°C.
