Newly described nesting sites of the green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) and the hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) in the central Red Sea. [PDF]
BackgroundThere is relatively little published information about sea turtle nesting distribution and seasonality in the Saudi Arabian Red Sea. Upcoming large-scale developments occurring along the Saudi Arabian Red Sea coast could negatively affect many sea turtle nesting beaches with potential impacts on the survival of local populations.MethodsIn ...

Using accelerometers for tracking loggerhead and green sea turtle behaviour. [PDF]
Abstract Background Understanding animal behaviour is critical for the design of effective conservation and management strategies. Animal-borne tri-axial accelerometers constitute a type of biologging device which have the potential to provide continuous high-resolution behavioural data.

Genetic Divergence and Isolation of the Green Sea Turtle (<i>Chelonia mydas</i>) in the Red Sea. [PDF]
ABSTRACT The green sea turtle Chelonia mydas is a wide‐ranging marine reptile, inhabiting all the world's tropical and warm‐temperate seas. This global distribution makes delineating population boundaries challenging, and molecular

Epibiotic bacteria on the carapace of hawksbill and green sea turtles
In this study, epibiotic bacteria on the carapace of sea turtles at three different sites in the Persian Gulf were studied. Bacterial density counted using a Scanning Electron Microscope showed that the highest (9.4 × 106 ± 0.8 × 106 cm−2) and lowest (5.3 × 106 ± 0.4 × 106 cm−2) average bacterial densities were found on the green and hawksbill sea ...

Hematologic and biochemical characteristics of stranded green sea turtles [PDF]
To improve understanding of pathophysiologic processes occurring in green sea turtles ( Chelonia mydas) stranded along the east coast of Australia, we retrospectively examined the hematologic and biochemical blood parameters of 127 green turtles admitted to 2 rehabilitation facilities, Dolphin Marine Magic (DMM) and Taronga Zoo (TZ), between 2002 and ...
