Comparative cranial morphology of the Late Cretaceous protostegid sea turtle Desmatochelys lowii [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Background The phylogenetic placement of Cretaceous marine turtles, especially Protostegidae, is still under debate among paleontologists. Whereas protostegids were traditionally thought to be situated within the clade of recent marine turtles ...

Functional Ecology, Volume 39, Issue 11, Page 3284-3298, November 2025.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Current knowledge about telomere biology relies to a very high degree on results from research on endotherms. This would not be problematic if organisms shared the same mechanisms regulating telomere length (TL) but this is not necessarily the case; for example, most ...

Habitat Use and Foraging Ecology of Three Sea Turtle Species Nesting in Northwest Costa Rica
Marine Ecology, Volume 46, Issue 6, November/December 2025.ABSTRACT Sea turtle species, even when sharing nesting beaches, exhibit distinct at‐sea movements and foraging behavior. At Playa Cabuyal, a sea turtle nesting beach in northwest Costa Rica, we utilized satellite telemetry to reveal the post‐nesting movement of green turtles (Chelonia mydas, n = 9) alongside carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analysis ...

DIE LEDERSCHILDKRÓTE DERMOCHELYS CORIACEA L. IN KOLUMBIEN
Bulletin of Marine and Coastal Research, 2016 This is the first report of the leatherback turtle, Dermochelys coriacea, nesting on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. On a 7.5 km long beach east of Santa Marta, in 1970 7 nesting females, 4 other nests, and 7 emergences of hatchlings were observed. Some natural history notes in comparison with the nesting behaviour of the loggerhead sea turtle are ...

Natural Resource Modeling, Volume 38, Issue 4, November 2025.ABSTRACT Nature tourism based on the observation of sea turtles is a socioeconomic activity that promotes the conservation of endangered species. However, tourism can affect the nesting sites, drastically affecting the ecosystem function. In this study, we propose a socio‐ecological model to describe the interplay between tourists and a turtle ...

Lifespan estimation in marine turtles using genomic promoter CpG density.
PLoS ONE, 2020 Maximum lifespan for most animal species is difficult to define. This is challenging for wildlife management as it is critical for estimating important aspects of population biology such as mortality rate, population viability, and period of reproductive
