Turtle mating systems: behavior, sperm storage, and genetic paternity.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Pearse D E, Avise J C

Abstract excerpt

As evidenced by the articles in this volume, a recent increase in interest in the mating systems of poikilothermic vertebrates has focused primarily on fishes, a few amphibians, and squamate reptiles. Turtles by contrast have received relatively little attention, yet they display a wide variety of mating behaviors and life-history characteristics that make them excellent candidates for addressing several aspects...
