Hawksbill turtle terra incognita: conservation genetics of eastern Pacific rookeries. [PDF]

Ecol Evol, 2016
AbstractPrior to 2008 and the discovery of several important hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) nesting colonies in the EP (Eastern Pacific), the species was considered virtually absent from the region. Research since that time has yielded new insights into EP hawksbills, salient among them being the use of mangrove estuaries for nesting.
