Chlamydiosis in Mariculture-reared Green Sea Turtles (Chelonia mydas) [PDF]
Veterinary Pathology, 1994 From August 1990 to June 1991, a moderate die-off of 4- to 5-year-old green sea turtles ( Chelonia mydas) occurred at Cayman Turtle Farm, Grand Cayman, British West Indies. Clinical signs included lethargy, anorexia, and inability to dive. Many of the ill turtles floated on the surface of their tanks. There was no apparent sex predilection.

Climate Change and Green Sea Turtle Sex Ratio—Preventing Possible Extinction [PDF]
Genes, 2020 Climate change poses a threat to species with temperature-dependent sex determination (TSD). A recent study on green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) at the northern Great Barrier Reef (GBR) showed a highly female-skewed sex ratio with almost all juvenile turtles being female.
