Sporadic nesting reveals long distance colonisation in the philopatric loggerhead sea turtle (Caretta caretta)
Abstract The colonisation of new suitable habitats is crucial for species survival at evolutionary scale under changing environmental conditions. However, colonisation potential may be limited by philopatry that facilitates exploiting successful habitats across generations. We examine the mechanisms...
