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

Cell-mediated immune response of Chelonia mydas
Developmental & Comparative Immunology, 1985Blastogenic and cytotoxic responsiveness of peripheral blood leukocytes from the green turtle, Chelonia mydas were examined. Blastogenic responses were low level and showed considerable variation between animals. Blastogenesis in response to phytohemagglutinin and concanavalin A was observed through out all seasons.

ELECTROCHEMOTHERAPY FOR THE TREATMENT OF FIBROPAPILLOMAS INCHELONIA MYDAS
Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2014Fibropapillomatosis continues to be an important cause of morbidity and mortality in sea turtles, particularly in Chelonia mydas. Turtles with this debilitating herpesvirus disease usually present with multiple, large, and ulcerated cutaneous masses that compromise both locomotion and feeding.

Caryospora cheloniae sp. n. is described from mariculture-reared green sea turtles (Chelonia m. mydas). The sporulated oocyst has a thin, transparent, single-layered wall which often ruptures, leaving a naked sporulated sporocyst. Oocysts measured 33.8 to 40.1 micrometer by 11.0 to 14.6 micrometer (mean 37.4 by 12.8 micrometer). Greatest concentrations

Accumulation of trace metals in eggs and hatchlings of Chelonia mydas
Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2020The objective of this study was to verify the accumulation of trace metals in eggs and hatchlings of Chelonia mydas, evaluating if metal accumulation is originated from maternal transfer and/or from the incubation environment. Other assessments were also performed, as metal distribution in different tissues (blood, kidney, liver, muscle, and turtle ...

Some Aspects of Electrolyte Excretion in the Green Turtle, Chelonia Mydas Mydas
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1964ABSTRACT 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.
