Additional file 2: of Reproductive inequalities in the acanthocephalan Corynosoma cetaceum: looking beyond ‘crowding’ effects
Table S2. Number of individuals (n) and sex ratio (percent males) per gut chamber, and total number of females (F) and males (M), of the acanthocephalan Corynosoma cetaceum in 10 franciscana dolphins, Pontoporia blainvillei, ordered by increasing intensity. (DOCX 14 kb)
Additional file 1: of Reproductive inequalities in the acanthocephalan Corynosoma cetaceum: looking beyond ‘crowding’ effects
Table S1. Number of females* of the acanthocephalan Corynosoma cetaceum classified into three developmental stages (1–3, see Methods) in three gut chambers from 10 franciscana dolphins, Pontoporia blainvillei, which are ordered by increasing intensity. Numbers in parentheses indicate the percentage that each stage represents for the females of each chamber. (DOCX 17 kb)
New records of Lepidochelys olivacea (Eschscholtz, 1829) (Testudines, Cheloniidae) provide evidence that Uruguayan waters are the southernmost limit of distribution for the species in the western Atlantic Ocean
We report 8 new records of Lepidochelys olivacea marine turtle in the Uruguayan waters, indicating this area as the southernmost limit of distribution for this species in the western Atlantic Ocean. In addition, 1 specimen was subjected to genetic analysis, revealing its population origin in the western Atlantic nesting colonies (Surinam, French Guiana, and Brazil). This report represents an update of the distribution of L. olivacea in the southwestern Atlantic and provides insight into the morphological and genetic characterization of the species at temperate waters.
