Temperature Conditions in Artificial Sea Turtle Nests: Toward Optimized Hatchery Management [PDF]

Ecology and Evolution
Climate change poses a significant threat to species with temperature‐dependent sex determination, such as sea turtles. Their conservation often involves relocating nests to hatcheries, which is also crucial on the Pacific coast of Guatemala, where ...

Using Photo-ID to document and monitor the prevalence of fibropapilloma tumours in a foraging aggregation of green turtles

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Sea turtle in-water monitoring has been conducted in Diani-Chale National Marine Reserve (DCMR) in Kenya’s South Coast since 2018, where green sea turtles (Chelonia mydas) may be found resting or foraging.

New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase-1-producing Citrobacter portucalensis belonging to the novel ST264 causing fatal sepsis in a vulnerable migratory sea turtle

One Health, 2023
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.

Validating trends in olive ridley sea turtle nesting track counts in Guatemala in light of a national hatchery protection strategy

Oryx, 2023
The olive ridley sea turtle Lepidochelys olivacea is the most abundant marine turtle species in Guatemala, representing > 99% of all nests. Along with other marine turtles, they are important both culturally and ecologically.

First Record of Triplet Embryos in Sea Turtles: Evidence of Natural Polyembryony in a Wild Green Turtle (<i>Chelonia mydas</i>) Nest From Guanahacabibes, Cuba. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
A rare case of polyembryonic triplets in a wild green turtle (Chelonia mydas) nest demonstrates how multiple embryos can develop within a single egg under natural conditions. Morphological and embryological evidence, including independent yolk vasculature and marked asymmetry among embryos, support a monozygotic origin and highlight developmental ...
