On Episode 15 of CheloniaCast Jason, Michael, Jack, and Ken sit down with Dr. Peter Lindeman, professor of biology at Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, to talk about the map turtles and sawbacks in the genus Graptemys. The discussion ranges from the use of independent contrasts in unraveling correlations in change of map turtle morphology over time, feeding ecology, the recent proposal to list megacephalic species on the Endangered Species Act, historic surveys and what they can and can’t tell us about abundance, and adventures pursuing Graptemys in the field for research.
