Plastral Patterns Serve an Anti‐Predator Function in Freshwater Turtle Hatchlings
Color and pattern serve as a range of anti‐predator defense mechanisms across taxa, from crypsis to warning coloration, and these phenomena are well described across invertebrate and vertebrate systems. Painted turtles (Chrysemys picta) are so named for their striking coloration and patterning.

Morphological comparison of the larynx and trachea of Chelonia mydas (Linnaeus, 1758), Caiman yacare (Daudin, 1802) and Caiman latirostris (Daudin, 1802) [PDF]
The larynx is in the lower respiratory tract and has the function of protecting the airways, controlling, and modulating breathing, assisting the circulatory system, and vocalizing. This study aims to describe the anatomy and histology of the skeleton of

CHEMORECEPTION IN THE MIGRATORY SEA TURTLE,CHELONIA MYDAS
1. The ability of the green turtle (Chelonia mydas) to detect various chemical substances dissolved in water has been investigated using operant conditioning techniques. The turtles pressed underwater keys to obtain food reinforcement in the presence of a chemical stimulus.2.

Abstract Stages of embryonic development for reptiles have been presented in tables that may include all or part of embryonic development. When oviposition occurs in some lizards, embryos are already in the later stages of development; likewise, the size of the eggs increases as incubation time progresses.

Chelonia mydas detection and image extraction from field recordings [PDF]
Wildlife videography is an essential data collection method for conducting. The video recording process of an animal like the Chelonia mydas sea turtles in its habitat requires setting up special camera or by performing complex camera movement whilst the

Quantifying spirorchiid eggs in splenic histological samples from green turtles
The present study proposes a new methodology for the quantification of parasite eggs in animal tissue. Quantification of parasites are important to understand epidemiology of spirorchiid infections in sea turtles, however different methodologies for ...

ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...
