Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The turtle was originally tagged in the right front flipper with a titanium tag (CB1728) by Marina Marlin staff during a nighttime nesting survey as a part of a project aimed at marking nesting females on the beaches in this important tourist area. A passive integrated transponder (PIT) tag (#989001001238897; frequency: 134.2 kHz; Biomark®, Inc., Boise, Idaho) was implanted into her right front flipper in addition to a new Inconel tag being added to the trailing edge of her left front flipper (EEN106). Use of baculovirus-expressed glycoprotein H in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay developed to assess exposure to chelonid fibropapillomatosis-associated herpesvirus and its relationship to the prevalence of fibropapillomatosis in sea turtles.
