Mechanics of the respiratory cycle in the green turtle (Chelonia mydas)
Respiration Physiology, 1974Abstract Inspiration in the green turtle is, from a mechanical standpoint, quite comparable to the same event in mammals, but expiration is the event of special interest, because there is no well-developed conducting system in the lungs. Nonetheless, peak expiratory flow velocities in this turtle are very high and are not different from those of man ...

Systemic oxalosis in a free-ranging green turtle (Chelonia mydas)
Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2023A female juvenile green turtle (Chelonia mydas), found alive in Guanabara Bay, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, was weak, dehydrated and cachectic, with a healed fracture in the caudal portion of the carapace. Despite supportive treatment, the animal died after 9 days.

Pulmonary function of the green sea turtle, Chelonia mydas
Journal of Applied Physiology, 1987Lung 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 ...

Bacterial diversity of the green turtle (Chelonia mydas) nest environment
Science of The Total Environment, 2020The 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.

Journal of Steroid Biochemistry, 1981
Abstract The metabolism of testosterone and progesterone was studied in the liver of the sea turtle. Chelonia mydas mydas . Liver homogenate preparations (50 mg/50 ml) from the male turtle were incubated at 25°C for 4 h with either [4- 14 C]-testosterone (I) of [4- 14C ]-progesterone (II) in a medium supplemented with a NADPH-generating system ...

COCCIDIOSIS IN THE GREEN TURTLE IN MARICULTURE (Chelonia mydas)
Proceedings of the annual meeting - World Mariculture Society, 1974ABSTRACTAn epidemic of disease in recently hatched green turtles (Chelonia mydas) was found to be associated with a new coccidial intestinal parasite. The disease and associated mortality appeared in young turtles approximately 30 days after hatching, and ran a 60 day course through the stock hatchlings at the farm.

Hapalotrema (Digenea: Spirorchidae) in the Green Turtle (Chelonia Mydas) in Australia
The Journal of Parasitology, 1998Hapalotrema mehrai Rao, 1976 and Hapalotrema postorchis Rao, 1976 (Digenea: Spirorchidae) are redescribed from the heart and pulmonary arteries of the green turtle, Chelonia mydas, from Moreton Bay in south-eastern Queensland. Hapalotrema pambanensis Gupta and Mehrotra, 1981 from C. mydas in India is made a synonym of H. mehrai.

Chelonid Alphaherpesvirus 5 DNA in Fibropapillomatosis-Affected Chelonia mydas
EcoHealth, 2019Fibropapillomatosis 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 ...

Green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) live in tropical and subtropical oceans worldwide and come onto land only to lay their eggs. This species is endangered with extinction due to a variety of causes that include consumption of their eggs by humans and other animals, loss of beach habitat, and drowning in fishing nets.

Regional endothermy in the sea turtle, Chelonia mydas
Journal of Thermal Biology, 1982Abstract 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.
