Item Growth and mortalities of the Pink-shrimp(2006-05) N . O ., Leite JR LEITE; JR . , PetrereFrom July, 1999 until July, 2001 data from the pink-shrimp Farfantepenaeus brasiliensis Latreille, 1970 and F. paulensis Pérez-Farfante, 1967 fishery were collected from trawling by the fishing fleet based in Santos/Guarujá-SP. Growth and mortalities of these species were studied. F. brasiliensis and F. paulensis have longevity of 2 years and growth estimates of L∞ = 29.0 cm and k = 1.24 year-1 for F. brasiliensis and L∞ = 27.5 cm and k = 1.34 year-1 for F. paulensis. Females reach bigger lengths than males in both species. Natural mortalities (M) were 1.80 and 1.90 year-1 and fishing mortalities (F) were 4.7 and 6.8 year-1 for F. brasiliensis and F. paulensis, respectively. Survival rates are S = 0.15% and 0.02% for F. brasiliensis and F. paulensis, respectively, which are usually low values for shrimps.Item Stock assessment and fishery management of the pink shrimp Farfantepenaeus brasiliensis Latreille(2006-02-28) LEITE , Junior JR . , N . O; M , Petrere . JR PETRERE; N.O, Junior JR LEITE; M , Petrere . JRQuantitative analyses of the pink shrimp (Farfantepenaeus brasiliensis and Farfantepenaeus paulensis) fisheries were carried out using data collected from July 1999 to July 2001 from the trawling operations of the fishing fleet based in Santos/Guarujá, SP. According to classical models, the fishery is at its maximum sustainable yield. Therefore, reduction of the fishing effort and adequate season and area closures seem to be the best management actions for the pink shrimp fishery.- Detection and characterization of fibropapilloma-associated turtle herpesvirus in marine turtles for Brazil.(2009-11) RODENBUSCH, C.R; ALMEIDA, L.L; MARKS, F.S; BAPTISTOTTE, C; PIRES, T.T; WERNECK, M.R; DAMASCENO, T; ALIEVI, M.M; CANAL, C.N
- Nesting Biology and conservation of the leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) in Espírito Santo State, Brazil, 1988-1989 to 2003-2004.(Chelonian Conservation and Biology, 2007-05-01) THOMÉ, J. C. A; BAPTISTOTTE, C; MOREIRA, L. M. P; SCALFONI, J. T; ALMEIDA, A. P; RIETH, D. B; BARATA, P. C. RIn Brazil, the only area where regular leatherback sea turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) nesting is known to occur is located on the northern coast of the state of Espı´rito Santo, around latitude 198S. In this study, we present the field methods used by Projeto TAMAR-IBAMA (the Brazilian Sea Turtle Conservation Program) in the state of Espı´rito Santo and analyze data on leatherback nesting from 1988–1989 to 2003–2004. In that period, 527 nests were observed in the study area. The annual number of nests varied between 6 (in 1993–1994) and 92 (in 2002–2003). Between 1995–1996 and 2003–2004, the annual number of nests increased at about 20.4% per year on average. Among the 527 clutches observed, 358 (67.9%) were left in situ, 50 (9.5%) were relocated to another spot on the beach, 88 (16.7%) were relocated to open-air beach hatcheries, and 31 clutches (5.9%) did not have their management decision recorded. Curved carapace length of nesting females was in the range of 139–182 cm (mean ¼ 159.8 cm). At present, there is no significant alteration of the nesting habitat in Espı´rito Santo, egg poaching has been reduced to very low levels, and there is no subsistence hunting for sea turtles of any species. The main challenges to leatherback conservation currently are the incidental capture in artisanal fisheries operating close to nesting beaches and in high seas fisheries operating in the South Atlantic, as well as activities related to the oil industry. An overview of Projeto TAMAR’s actions addressing current sea turtle conservation issues in the State of Espı´rito Santo is presented.

- Educational campaign to reduce the impact of artificial light on sea turtle nesting beaches in Brazil.(2000) MARCOVALDI, M. Â; BELLINI, C; CASTILHOS, J. C de; SILVA, A. C. C. D. da; GALLO, B. M. G; BAPTISTOTTE, C.; LIMA, E. H. S. M; LIMA, E. P; SANCHES, T. M; THOMÉ, J; PATIRI, V. J. ASeveral important stages of reproduction by sea turtles normally take place at night, under the cover of darkness on beaches. Artificial lights on or near beaches often reduce the number of female sea turtles that emerge from the ocean to nest (Witherington, 1992; Ehrhart et al. 1996). When females do lay their eggs on beaches that are subject to artificial lighting, seafinding of the resultant hatchling turtles is often disrupted and they often go away from the sea (e.g. Philibosian, 1976; Peters and Verhoeven, 1994). Misoriented hatchlings face increased mortality from land predators, accidental trampling by people or vehicles, or desiccation following sunrise. Development of coastal areas, in the form of homes, hotels, industrial complexes, and recreational areas, leads to an increase of nighttime lighting. Unchecked lighting on beaches used by sea turtles can have serious impacts on nesting populations, and as such management of lighting on or near beaches is a priority for most sea turtle conservation programs.
- Reproductive biology and conservation status of the loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta) in Espirito Santo State, Brazil.(2000) BAPTISTOTTE, C; THOMÉ, J. C. A; BJORNDAL, KThe reproductive biology of loggerheads nesting in Espírito Santo, Brazil, is evaluated for six nesting seasons (1991/1992 through 1996/1997), through data gathered by Projeto TAMAR-IBAMA, the Brazilian sea turtle conservation program. Mean curved carapace length of nesting females was 102.7 cm (n=198). Mean clutch size for clutches with more than 50 eggs was 119.7 (n=3664), and clutch size was significantly correlated with female body size. Management practices had significant effects on hatching success and incubation time. Mean hatching success of nests left in situ was 68.3% (n=879), of undepredated nests left in situ was 79.9% (n=751), and of nests moved to hatcheries and not depredated was 67.7% (n=2786). For nests moved to hatcheries, hatching success declined significantly with increasing time interval between oviposition and transfer to the hatchery. Mean incubation time was 59.5 days for nests left in situ (n=572) and 57.2 days for nests moved to hatcheries (n=2179). Incubation time declined significantly throughout the nesting season as temperatures increased; we conclude that sex ratio of hatchlings also shifts to more females as the season progresses. There was significant annual variation for all parameters. A short review of the conservation status of loggerheads in Espírito Santo State is also presented.
Item Hawksbill turtles in Brazil(2006-04) MARCOVALDI, M. A; THOMÉ, J. C; LOPEZ, G. G; SOARES, L. S- Sattelite-Tracked movements of leatherbeck sea turtles Dermochelys coriacea, from Southeastern Brazil.(2009) ALMEIDA, A.P; ECKERT, S.A; BRUNO, S.C; SCALFONI, J.T; GIFFONI, B; THOMÉ, J.C.AComprehension on the habitat use during migratory movements can help to understand the differences in the conservation status of different populations, and to drive the needed conservation efforts. In Southwestern Atlantic, however, information regarding habitat use and migratory movements is restricted to few tag recoveries. This first satellite telemetry study of leatherbacks nesting in Brazilian grounds aimed to understand the intertnesting and post nesting movements of females tracked from an endangered and severely depleted rookery.
