Chemical Composition of the Eggs of the Freshwater Turtle Phrynops hilarii (Chelidae: Testudines) [PDF]
, 2019 At oviposition, amniote eggs contain all the nutrients required for complete neonate tissue development. For reptiles and birds, the egg yolk is the main embryonic energy source and is composed predominantly of proteins and lipids, while also providing ...

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Body size is of paramount importance to the survival of all organisms because of the intimate associations between size, physiological processes and ecology. Sexual size dimorphism (SSD: differences in size between the sexes) is a direct consequence of these ecomorphological relationships, arising due to sex‐based differences in selection ...

Freshwater turtle (Reptilia: Testudines) assemblage from an urban protected Atlantic Forest remnant: population density, movement and habitat preference [PDF]
Zoologia (Curitiba)Urbanization may significantly impact wild population dynamics, even in protected green spaces. From 2016 to 2018, we accessed an assemblage of freshwater turtles isolated in an urban remnant of the Atlantic Forest, southern Brazil.

Salmonella infection in healthy pet reptiles: Bacteriological isolation and study of some pathogenic characters [PDF]
, 2016 The fecal samples from 213 captive reptiles were examined, and 29 (13.61%) Salmonella enterica isolates were detected: 14/62 (22.58%) from chelonians, 14/135 (10.37%) from saurians, and 1/16 (6.25%) from ophidians.

Spiroxys contortus (Rudolphi, 1819) and Hedruris orestiae (Moniez, 1889) in Argentine turtles [PDF]
, 2016 Knowledge of parasites in turtles is scarce,particularly with regard to freshwater turtles of SouthAmerica. Here, we describe the association of Spiroxyscontortus (Rudolphi, 1819) in Phrynops hilarii (Duméril& Bibron, 1835) and S.

A comprehensive embryonic staging series of the turtle Trachemys scripta
Developmental Dynamics, Volume 255, Issue 3, Page 260-320, March 2026.Abstract Background Turtles hold a unique place in vertebrate evolutionary history, making them critical assets in embryology research. Yet, they remain understudied as potential model organisms in the field. Here, to support experimental manipulations with turtle embryos, we have created a complete normal table of development for comprehensive ...
