Polyandry in the red-headed river turtle Podocnemis erythrocephala (Testudines, Podocnemididae) in the Brazilian Amazon.

Genetics and molecular research : GMR - 16 Mar 2010

Abstract excerpt

The genus Podocnemis comprises six living species, including P. erythrocephala (irapuca-red-headed river turtle). Data are available concerning the reproductive biology of the species of the genus Podocnemis, but little is known about their reproductive strategies. Considering the total lack of such data for P. erythrocephala, and with the goal of contributing information on their mode of reproduction, we...
