Congenital Craniofacial Abnormalities in Olive Ridley Sea Turtle Hatchlings

The FASEB Journal, 2021
The Olive Ridley (Lepidochelys olivacea), is the most abundant species of sea turtles in the world, but is still threatened according to the red list of endangered species. Apparently, the Olive Ridley turtle seems more prone to congenital malformations compared to other species of sea turtles.

Green Sea Turtle Recruitment in the Eastern North Pacific: Patterns Identified Using Geochemical Signatures in Bones. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
We present vital life‐history and demographic data including the oceanic stage duration, timing of ontogenetic habitat shifts, and multi‐year foraging patterns of eastern North Pacific green sea turtles found in Southern California. The findings were obtained by analyzing sea turtle bones (age and growth via skeletochronology; and habitat and diet via ...

Defining olive ridley turtle Lepidochelys olivacea management units in Australia and assessing the potential impact of mortality in ghost nets

Endangered Species Research, 2013
In Australia, the olive ridley sea turtle Lepidochelys olivacea has received little research attention and monitoring. The Australian populations are relatively small and their distribution is limited to remote areas in the northern part of the country ...
