No full textFig. 4. Study site at Zapatilla Cays, Bocas del Toro Province, Panama. Solid circles indicate sites sampled with nets between 1990 and 2005. Point O' Reef, Peachy, and Comfort are in the Caribbean Sea and were fished with ''ocean sets.'' All remaining sites are within Chiriqui Lagoon and were fished with standard set nets (see Methods).Published as part of Meylan, Peter A., Meylan, Anne B. & Gray, Jennifer A., 2011, The Ecology And Migrations Of Sea Turtles 8.

A, Captures made during 13 migratory season samples (May, June, July, and September), 1990–2005. B, Captures from one nonmigratory season sample, January, 1994. Minimum adult size, indicated by the dashed line, is based on laparoscopy of 178 C. mydas in Bocas del Toro, Panama, and size criteria developed from laparoscopy data (this study; Meylan and Meylan, unpubl. data).Published as part of Meylan, Peter A., Meylan, Anne B. & Gray, Jennifer A., 2011, The Ecology And Migrations Of Sea Turtles 8.

Caninemys Meylan & Gaffney & De Almeida Campos 2009, new genus
No full textCaninemys, new genus TYPE SPECIES: Caninemys tridentata, new species. DISTRIBUTION: Late Tertiary, Miocene, of Acre, Brazil. ETYMOLOGY: Named for the bulldog appearance of the skull and the large maxillary processes in the position of mammalian canines. DIAGNOSIS: A podocnemidid pleurodire with a well-developed processus trochlearis pterygoidei, quadrate-basioccipital contact, and a large cavum pterygoidei; unique among podocnemidids (and all other turtles) in having greatly inflated maxillae, each with a ventral, toothlike process, which, together with a single process formed on the midline of the premaxillae, form a tridentate condition in the upper triturating surfaces, unique among pleurodires. The entire animal was probably smaller than Stupendemys geographicus Wood, 1976.Published as part of Meylan, Peter A., Gaffney, Eugene S. & De Almeida Campos, Diogenes, 2009, Caninemys, a New Side-Necked Turtle (Pelomedusoides: Podocnemididae) from the Miocene of Brazil, pp. 1-26 in American Museum Novitates 3639 on page 4, DOI: 10.1206/608.1, http://zenodo.org/record/535643
