The first Pan-Podocnemididae turtle egg from the Presidente Prudente Formation (Late Cretaceous, Bauru Group), Brazil
(Magnolia Press, 2014-10-08)
Pan-Podocnemididae turtles are ubiquitous in Late Cretaceous rocks of the Bauru Group in southeastern Brazil. This group of side-necked turtles is particularly abundant in a turtle-bearing site of the Presidente Prudente ...
A Novel Incubator to Simulate the Natural Thermal Environment of Sea Turtle Eggs.
(Journal of Thermal Biology, 2010-01-01)
A novel sea turtle egg incubator was developed in which the heating element is placed above the clutch, which more closely simulates solar heating in nature. An electronic thermometer in conjunction with a thermostat located ...
A gravid fossil turtle from the Early Cretaceous reveals a different egg development strategy to that of extant marine turtles
Extant sea turtles develop and lay pliable (flexible) eggs; however, it is unknown whether they inherited this reproductive strategy from their closer fossil relatives or if it represents an evolutionary novelty. Here, we ...

Development and validation of a solid–liquid extraction with low-temperature partitioning method for the determination of fipronil in turtle eggshell
(2022-07-01)
The intense use of fipronil in sugarcane crops in Brazil in regions close to the spawning areas of freshwater turtles may pose a considerable threat to the reproduction of these organisms. Therefore, the development and ...
Chemical Composition of the Eggs of the Freshwater Turtle Phrynops hilarii (Chelidae: Testudines)
(Herpetological Conservation and Biology, 2019-10)
At oviposition, amniote eggs contain all the nutrients required for complete neonate tissue development. For reptiles and birds, the egg yolk is the main embryonic energy source and is composed predominantly of proteins ...
