Evidence of hawksbill turtle (Eretmochelys imbricata) depredation on fish caught in gillnets

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Bycatch is a major global threat to marine megafauna and occurs in nearly all fishing fleets, including small-scale fisheries that use gillnets. Gillnets represent a threat to endangered air-breathing megafauna, who incidentally entangle in bottom-set ...

Satellite tracking reveals critical habitats and migratory pathways for green and hawksbill turtles nesting in Montserrat, Eastern Caribbean

Endangered Species Research
The United Kingdom Overseas Territory of Montserrat supports modest but regionally important nesting populations of green and hawksbill turtles. However, knowledge of the spatial ecology and regional connectivity of these populations is limited. Here, we

Northeast Brazil shows highest hawksbill turtle nesting density in the South Atlantic

Endangered Species Research, 2013
To date, hawksbill turtle Eretmochelys imbricata nesting in Brazil has been estimated by recording clutch numbers. To better address conservation assessments and more reliably estimate the number of females, the Projeto TAMAR-ICMBio initiated a mark and ...

Environmental DNA Biosurveillance of Chelonid Herpesvirus 5 (ChHV5) in Endangered Sea Turtles Around Singapore

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 3, May–June 2026.
This study explores the application of environmental DNA sampling for chelonid herpesvirus 5 (ChHV5) surveillance in endangered sea turtles around Singapore. We demonstrate the direct detection of ChHV5 from seawater, and the feasibility of sediment‐based ChHV5 detection using a spike‐and‐recovery experiment.
