THE IMPORTANCE OF NIDIFICATION ENVIRONMENT IN THE PODOCNEMIS EXPANSA AND PODOCNEMIS UNIFILIS PHENOTYPES (TESTUDINES: PODOCNEMIDIDAE)

South American Journal of Herpetology, 2007
Abstract This work analyses the influence that nest site characteristics have over natural incubation in freshwater turtles Podocnemis expansa and Podocnemis unifilis. Results indicate that neither carapace size nor weight of P. expansa hatchlings depends on environmental characteristics.

Enterobacteriaceae Associated with Eggs of Podocnemis expansa and Podocnemis unifilis (Testudines: Chelonia) in Nonpolluted Sites of National Park of Araguaia Plains, Brazil

Journal of Zoo and Wildlife Medicine, 2010
Fertile eggs of Podocnemis expansa and Podocnemis unifilis were investigated for the presence of enterobacteria, as these two endangered species have the potential for conservation measures that include egg transfer. Knowledge of normal microflora associated with turtles and turtle eggs would help effectively manage the transfer of these eggs among ...

Thermal Environment Characteristics of Podocnemis expansa and Podocnemis unifilis Nesting Areas on the Javaés River, Tocantins, Brazil

Chelonian Conservation and Biology, 2006
ABSTRACT Subsurface temperature variation suggests that the thermal environment of giant Amazon river turtle (Podocnemis expansa) nests is influenced by the proximity of the water table and by the nest depth. The difference between vertical temperature gradients along fluvial beaches indicates that nest placement can exert a significant influence on ...

Nesting of Podocnemis unifilis in the Capanaparo River, Venezuela

Journal of Herpetology, 1993
(Pritchard and Trebbau, 1984). Although still abundant in many lowland riverine habitats in Venezuela, including the Capanaparo River, numbers appear to be declining because the terecay is a principal human food staple during the dry season, with both eggs and turtles being consumed or sold in large quantities throughout the species range (Mittermeier,
