  • Population Structure of Marine Turtles in the Dominican Republic
    Contextualising the Last Survivors: Population Structure of Marine Turtles in the Dominican Republic Carlos Carreras1*, Brendan J. Godley1, Yolanda M. Leo´ n2,3, Lucy A. Hawkes1, Ohiana Revuelta4, Juan A. Raga4, Jesu´ s Toma´s1,4 1 Centre for Ecology and Conservation, University of Exeter, Penryn, United Kingdom, 2 Grupo Jaragua, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, 3 Instituto Tecnolo´gico de Santo Domingo, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, 4 Cavanilles Institute of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology (Scientific Park), University of Valencia, Valencia, Spain Abstract Nesting by three species of marine turtles persists in the Dominican Republic, despite historic threats and long-term population decline. We conducted a genetic survey of marine turtles in the Dominican Republic in order to link them with other rookeries around the Caribbean. We sequenced a 740bp fragment of the control region of the mitochondrial DNA of 92 samples from three marine turtle species [hawksbill (n = 48), green (n = 2) and leatherback (n = 42)], and incorporated published data from other nesting populations and foraging grounds. The leatherback turtle (Dermochelys coriacea) in the Dominican Republic appeared to be isolated from Awala-Yalimapo, Cayenne, Trinidad and St. Croix but connected with other Caribbean populations. Two distinct nesting populations of hawksbill turtles (Eremochelys imbricata) were detected in the Dominican Republic and exhibited interesting patterns of connectivity with other nesting sites and juvenile and adult male foraging aggregations. The green sea turtle (Chelonia mydas) has almost been extirpated from the Dominican Republic and limited inference could be made from our samples. Finally, results were compared with Lagrangian drifting buoys and published Lagrangian virtual particles that travelled through the Dominican Republic and Caribbean waters.

  • Theodoor De Booy: Caribbean Expeditions and Collections at the National Museum of the American Indian
    Journal of Caribbean Archaeology Copyright 2019 ISBN 1524-4776 Theodoor de Booy: Caribbean Expeditions and Collections at the National Museum of the American Indian L. Antonio Curet and Maria Galban National Museum of the American Indian Smithsonian Institution [email protected] [email protected] ______________________________________________________________________________ Like many other regions throughout the world, the colonial experience in the Caribbean included the arrival of North American and European archaeologists representing museums, universities, or scientific academies. The objects, specimens, and archival documentation gathered during their research were taken back to their countries of origin and today form part of major collections in museums throughout the world. Theodoor de Booy of the Museum of the American Indian was one these early foreign scholars working in the Caribbean. He collected thousands of objects and created a large photographic collection from his 13 archaeological and one ethnographic expeditions throughout the region between 1911 and 1918. Considering the breadth of his work, de Booy could easily be considered the leading specialist of Caribbean archaeology of his time. Unfortunately, despite his successful career, his role in Caribbean archaeology and the quality of the collections he obtained are greatly underestimated by scholars working in the region. This paper discusses the nature of de Booy’s travels and research throughout the Caribbean, from Cuba and Jamaica to Venezuela, and characterizes the collections, now held by the National Museum of the American Indian. The projects, collections, and publications are assessed within the context of the period, and his impact on the archaeology of the region is discussed. Como muchas otras regiones del mundo, la experiencia colonial en el Caribe incluyó la llegada de arqueólogos norteamericanos y europeos que representaban museos, universidades o academias científicas.
