Blood glucose is a key physiological indicator in sea turtles, but its measurement in field settings can be challenging. Portable point‐of‐care (POC) glucometers offer practicality, yet their agreement with reference laboratory methods has not been established for juvenile green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) from the Southwestern Atlantic.

ABSTRACT The introduction of exotic species, alongside habitat degradation and global warming, is one of the most pressing issues in conservation ecology. Trachemys scripta is now widespread throughout Europe after decades of pet trade and releases and is often considered a threat to native freshwater turtles.

Effect of shell type on the composition of chelonian eggs [PDF]
This study examined the hypothesis that composition of chelonian eggs, i.e. masses of shell, yolk and albumen, would be influenced by the structure of the eggshell. In particular, because albumen is a store of water in an egg, it was predicted that rigid-

Twenty‐Year Progress in Landscape Genetics of Tetrapods
Geographic distribution of tetrapod landscape genetics between 2003 and 2025. ABSTRACT Landscape genetics, an interdisciplinary field integrating population genetics, landscape ecology, and spatial analytical techniques, has progressed significantly over two decades, yet systematic reviews of its application to tetrapods remain limited. Here, we review

A Review of the Effects of Freshwater Habitat Quality on Aquatic & Semi‐Aquatic Turtles
This literature review aims to provide a comprehensive review of the relationship between freshwater turtles and their aquatic environments. We also highlight areas which have been over‐ or under‐studied and offer recommendations for future research. ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles and terrapins require an aquatic habitat as part of their natural ecology ...

ABSTRACT Hematologic assessment is a common clinical tool used to characterize both individual and population health. In ectothermic organisms, the hematologic response is influenced by external factors such as temperature and season, especially in temperate species. Yet, specific environmental effects have received little direct attention.
