Large‐scale connectivity, cryptic population structure, and relatedness in Eastern Pacific Olive ridley sea turtles (Lepidochelys olivacea) [PDF]
Endangered species are grouped into genetically discrete populations to direct conservation efforts. Mitochondrial control region (mtCR) haplotypes are used to elucidate deep divergences between populations, as compared to nuclear microsatellites that ...

Genomic insights into marine environment adaptation and conservation of the threatened olive ridley turtle (Lepidochelys olivacea). [PDF]
Summary Sea turtles are marine flagship species and most of them are currently in a threatened state. Long-term surviving in the ocean has driven significant morphological and physiological changes for this group, which makes them an ideal model for ...

First report of Rhytidodes gelatinosus (Rudolphi, 1819) Looss, 1901 (Digenea: Rhytidodidae) in an olive-ridley Turtle Lepidochelys olivacea (Eschscholtz, 1829) from Brazil [PDF]
This article reports the first occurrence of Rhytidodes gelatinosus (Rudolphi, 1819) Looss, 1901 (Digenea: Rhytidodidae) in the olive-ridley turtle Lepidochelys olivacea (Testudines: Chelonidae), in an individual found in the State of Sergipe, Brazil ...

New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1-producing Citrobacter portucalensis belonging to the novel ST264 causing fatal sepsis in a vulnerable migratory sea turtle [PDF]
Olive ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea) turtles migrate across tropical regions of the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. Worryingly, olive ridley populations have been declining substantially and is now considered a threatened species.

Between the Atolls: Sea Turtle Nesting in the Maldives from 2018 to 2024 [PDF]
Sea turtles are a vital part of the marine ecosystem in the Maldives. While five species have been recorded in-water in the country, only two have been historically known to nest here: hawksbills and greens. In this study, we present cumulative data from

Genetic Evidence for Indo-Western Pacific Olive Ridley Sea Turtles in Mexican Waters
The olive ridley sea turtle is predominantly an epipelagic species with no apparent migration corridors. Research in feeding areas in other sea turtle species has identified aggregations of individuals from diverse backgrounds; however, no specific ...

Unusual Patterns of Lateral Scutes in Two Olive Ridley Turtles and Their Genetic Assignment to the Thai Andaman Sea Populations of Lepidochelys olivacea Eschscholtz, 1829. [PDF]
Simple Summary In this study, we used both morphology and molecular genetic tools, namely mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control region and nuclear DNA (nDNA) exon involving recombination activating gene 2 (RAG2), to confirm the species of two sea turtles ...
