CAPTIVE BREEDING OF THE GREEN SEA TURTLE (Chelonia mydas)
Proceedings of the annual meeting - World Mariculture Society, 1977ABSTRACTCaptive breeding and nesting activity of the green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) occurring at a commercial sea turtle farm in the Cayman Islands is described. Isolation of reproductively active pairs facilitates successful mounting among the captive breeding population.

The presence of green sea turtle, Chelonia mydas, in the Adriatic Sea
Herpetological journal, 2004We collated and reviewed data on the green turtle in the Adriatic Sea from our own records, museum collections, and published literature. Results show overlap of records and cases of misidentification of large loggerheads as green turtles. Currently there have been twelve green turtles recorded in the Adriatic Sea.

Melatonin in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid of the green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas)
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1980Abstract A melatonin radioimmunoassay was validated for the green sea turtle. A pronounced diurnal rhythm of melatonin content was evident in both serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). In immature turtles, CSF melatonin levels paralleled those in serum but were always significantly lower.

Quantitative Requirements of the Hatchling Green Sea Turtle for Lysine, Tryptophan, and Methionine
Journal of Nutrition, 1977The quantitative requirement for the amino acids lysine, tryptophan, and methionine was determined for the hatchling green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas). Hatchling green sea turtles were fed synthetic diets of purified substances with the composition of the diet varying in the amount of lysine, tryptophan or methionine present. The lysine requirement was

Conjunctivitis, tracheitis, and pneumonia associated with herpesvirus infection in green sea turtles
Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 1986SUMMARY Fourteen juvenile (15- to 20-month-old) green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas), representative of a group of sea turtles with clinical signs of respiratory tract disease, were euthanatized and submitted for necropsy. Macroscopically, lesions included periglottal necrosis, tracheitis with intraluminal caseous and laminated necrotic debris, and ...

Spatial distribution of turtle barnacles on the green sea turtle, Chelonia mydas
Ecological Research, 2007Abstract Distribution patterns of epibiotic barnacles on green sea turtles were investigated in waters neighboring Okinawa, Japan. A number of barnacle species were found to coexist on the turtles and were classified into three genera: Chelonibia ...

Behavioral Response of Reef Fish and Green Sea Turtles to Midfrequency Sonar
2016There is growing concern over the potential effects of high-intensity sonar on wild fish populations and commercial fisheries. Acoustic telemetry was employed to measure the movements of free-ranging reef fish and sea turtles in Port Canaveral, FL, in response to routine submarine sonar testing.
