Later Nesting by Hawksbill Turtle following Sea Surface Warming

Journal of Herpetology, 2020
We studied the nesting behavior of the Hawksbill Turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) along the northeastern coast of Brazil, specifically in southern Rio Grande do Norte. We compare the peak of nesting activity for several seasons from 2006 to 2016. The raw data consist of daily records of the presence of hawksbill turtle on a beach (N = 3,717).

Pharmacokinetic characteristics of danofloxacin in green sea (Chelonia mydas) and hawksbill sea (Eretmochelys imbricata) turtles

Journal of Veterinary Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 2022
AbstractTo date, the number of green sea and hawksbill sea turtles is in decline due to environmental, anthropogenic, and pathological factors. The present study described the pharmacokinetic characteristics of danofloxacin (DNX) in green sea and hawksbill sea turtles, following single intravenous (i.v.) and intramuscular (i.m.) administrations at ...

Dispersal, recruitment and migratory behaviour in a hawksbill sea turtle aggregation

Molecular Ecology, 2008
AbstractWe investigated the dispersal, recruitment and migratory behaviour of the hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata), among different life‐history stages and demographic segments of the large hawksbill turtle aggregation at Mona Island, Puerto Rico.

INTER-SEASONAL MAINTENANCE OF INDIVIDUAL NEST SITE PREFERENCES IN HAWKSBILL SEA TURTLES

Ecology, 2006
Within a single population of hawksbill sea turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata), we found a behavioral polymorphism for maternal nest site choice with respect to beach microhabitat characteristics. Some females preferred to nest in littoral forest and in places with overstory vegetation cover, and others preferred to nest in more open, deforested areas ...

Hawksbill sea turtles in seagrass pastures: success in a peripheral habitat

Marine Biology, 2009
Hawksbill sea turtles, Eretmochelys imbricata, are closely associated with coral reef and other hard-bottom habitats. Seagrass pastures are peripheral habitats for Caribbean hawksbills. With the decline in quality and quantity of coral reefs, seagrass habitats may become more important for hawksbills.

Gonadal Morphology of Stillborn Hawksbill Sea Turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) Hatchlings

Microscopy and Microanalysis
Abstract This study aimed to investigate sexual dimorphism in stillborn hawksbill sea turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata) through gonadal morphological characterizations. Macroscopic, light microscopy, and transmission electron analyses were performed for 30 gonad-mesonephros complexes.

Diverse migratory strategies for a hawksbill sea turtle population

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems
Abstract Outside of short, infrequent visits to reproductive habitats, sea turtle lifespans are largely spent in foraging areas. Supporting imperilled populations in an era of biodiversity declines and environmental change requires improvements in the understanding of foraging distributions, plus the migratory corridors that connect foraging and ...

Mitochondrial DNA Profiling of Illegal Tortoiseshell Products Derived from Hawksbill Sea Turtles

Journal of Forensic Sciences, 2016
AbstractThe hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) is a highly endangered species, commonly poached for its ornate shell. “Tortoiseshell” products made from the shell are widely, although illegally, available in many countries. Hawksbills have a circumglobal distribution; thus, determining their origin is difficult, although genetic differences ...

Efficient establishment of primary fibroblast cultures from the hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata)

In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Animal, 2012
The hawksbill sea turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) is a critically endangered species at a risk of extinction. Preservation of the genomic and cellular information of endangered animals is important for future genetic and biological studies. Here, we report the efficient establishment of primary fibroblast cultures from skin tissue of the hawksbill sea ...
