Resumo
We report here the second tag recovery demonstrating hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata) trans Atlantic migration between Fernando de Noronha (Brazil) and Corisco Bay (on the border
between Equatorial Guinea and Gabon). In Brazil, a long-term mark-recapture study by Projeto
TAMAR-IBAMA has targeted juvenile hawksbills found foraging and resting in aggregations in
the waters of the Fernando de Noronha archipelago and Rocas Atoll. Adult hawksbills are not
observed at these sites.
