Understanding the at-sea spatial behaviour of sea turtles is a priority for their conservation.
In the present paper, the current information on the distribution and movement patterns of …

Sea turtle by‐catch data in the Mediterranean were reviewed and analysed with fishing
effort. The results indicate over 132 000 captures per year, with probably over 44 000 …

A key issue in conservation biology is recognizing and bridging the gap between scientific
results and specific action. We examine sea turtles—charismatic yet endangered flagship …

Loggerhead turtles nesting in the Mediterranean Sea exhibit remarkable genetic structuring.
This paper tests the hypothesis that young loggerhead turtles from different rookeries do not …

Abstract Knowledge about migratory routes and highly frequented areas is a priority for sea
turtle conservation, but the movement patterns of juveniles frequenting the Adriatic have not …

Many marine megavertebrate taxa, including sea turtles, disperse widely from their hatching
or birthing locations but display natal homing as adults. We used flipper tagging, satellite …

One of the major gaps in the knowledge of sea turtle population dynamics is survival
probability, in particular of juveniles, which represent the bulk of the population and whose …

In migratory species female‐and male‐mediated gene flow are important for defining
relevant Management Units, and for evaluating connectivity between these and their …

Libya is one of the most important loggerhead turtle Caretta caretta nesting grounds in the
Mediterranean Sea, but data on its genetic diversity and demographic connection to …

Studying the impact of bycatch on marine megafauna, including sea turtles, is challenging
for a variety of technical and biological reasons. The Mediterranean Sea has among the …
