  • Research Informs Legislative Change in a Marine Turtle Fishery
    Biodivers Conserv DOI 10.1007/s10531-015-0900-1 ORIGINAL PAPER Protecting the breeders: research informs legislative change in a marine turtle fishery 1 2 Thomas B. Stringell • Wesley V. Clerveaux • 1 2 Brendan J. Godley • Quinton Phillips • 1,3 1,3 Susan Ranger • Peter B. Richardson • 3 1 Amdeep Sanghera • Annette C. Broderick Received: 12 September 2014 / Revised: 20 February 2015 / Accepted: 4 March 2015 Ó Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2015 Abstract Marine turtles are sensitive to harvesting because of life-cycle traits such as longevity, late maturity and natal philopatry. The take of nesting females is of conservation concern because they are key to population maintenance and has led to global efforts to protect this life stage. In the Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI; a UK Overseas Territory in the Caribbean), previous turtle fishery legislation protected nesting turtles on the beach but not in the water, where turtles over a minimum size were subject to legal take. In a 2-year study, we undertook nesting beach and in-water surveys, molecular analyses, satellite tracking and collation of fisheries landing data to investigate the populations of green (Chelonia mydas) and hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata) turtles in the TCI and its turtle fishery. Adults were frequently taken in one of the region’s largest legal and artisanal turtle fisheries. We suggest that nesting populations in the TCI, which contain genetically unique haplotypes, have diminished since the 1980s, likely as a result of the harvest of adults. Using these multiple lines of evidence, we highlight the inadequacies of the former fishery regulations and propose specific legislative amendments, which, as a result of this study, were implemented on 1 July 2014 by the TCI government.

  • Turks & Caicos
    Turks & Caicos Overview: The Turks and Caicos Islands (TCI) is an archipelago situated southeast of the Bahamas in the Caribbean. It is an overseas dependent territory of the United Kingdom. TCI is comprised of an archipelago of two distinct island groups separated by the Turks Passage. There are eight main islands (of which 6 are inhabited) and more than 20 smaller islands, with the Turks to the southeast and the Caicos to the northwest. The TCI's economy is based primarily on tourism, fishing and offshore financial services. Most capital goods and food for domestic consumption are imported. Territory: The Turks and Caicos islands primarily consist of low, flat limestone with extensive marshes and mangrove swamps. The main islands are the 2 Turks islands to the southeast (Grand Turk and Salt Cay) and the 4 Caicos islands to the northwest (Providenciales, North Caicos, South Caicos, and Middle Caicos). East and West Caicos are uninhabited. There is also a chain of cays (keys) that run between Providenciales and North Caicos, most of which are privately owned. Land: 616.3 sq. km. Turks Main Islands: (Grand Turk: 11.2 km x 2.4 km., Salt Cay: 4 sq. km.)

Email: [email protected] The West Indian Whistling-duck (Dendrocygna arborea) is globally threatened due to significant population declines during the Twentieth Century. Turks and Caicos is a potentially important range-state for the species, but its status there has never been firmly established. A survey of West Indian Whistling-ducks was conducted in the Turks and Caicos islands during February and March 1999 to make a preliminary assessment of the distribution and abundance of the species in the territory, and to test the viability of several different survey methods, including aerial surveys, tape- playback of the species' calls, and running transects through different habitat types.
