Pivotal and beach temperatures for hawksbill turtles nesting in Antigua

Canadian Journal of Zoology, 1992
Eggs of hawksbill turtles, Eretmochelys imbricata, from Antigua were incubated at constant tempe ratures. The pivotal temperature (the temperature at which 50% of each sex is produced) for the sample was estimated to be 29.2 °C. Sand temperatures at the depth of turtle nests were recorded over two nesting seasons at Pasture Bay, Antigua. Although sand

The Carapacial Scutes of hawksbill turtles (Eretmochelys imbricata)

2007
The primary objective of the research reported here was to decipher information on the relationship between size and age from the keratin plates of the carapace of hawksbill turtles, Eretmochelys imbricata. This required a detailed description of the development and differentiation of the keratin plates, and the formulation of a morphological model ...

Exploiting Green and Hawksbill Turtles in Western Australia: The Commercial Marine Turtle Fishery

2014
Many attempts were made to exploit both the green and hawksbill turtle commercially from the mid-1800s. The first commercial export of hawksbill tortoiseshell appeared in the Western Australian trade tables in 1869 and the green turtle fishing industry operated intermittently between 1870 and 1961 prior to the industry becoming successfully established

Molecular ecology of hawksbill turtles Eretmochelys imbricata in the Seychelles [PDF]

, 2013
Molecular genetics are an invaluable tool in whole-organism biology, allowing the indirect investigation of life history traits and evolutionary processes that are otherwise unobservable. In this thesis, I apply molecular genetic techniques to the study of the hawksbill sea turtle Eretmochelys imbricata, using a population in the Republic of Seychelles.
