These data represent reproductive ecology characteristics for 4 species of mature female turtles captured at Elephant Butte Reservoir on the Rio Grande River in New Mexico, during two field survey periods in June 2012 and 2013. Data were collected on female reproductive ecology including clutch size, egg size, timing of egg production, and the percentage of reproductive females using X-radiography. The purpose of these data are to add to the deficient information on the reproductive ecology of four turtle species at the Elephant Butte Reservoir on the Rio Grande and Black River in New Mexico. Data contained in this worksheet were analyzed to determine clutch and egg sizes for four native species of turtles (Apalone spinifera, Chrysemys picta, Pseudemys gorzugi, and Trachemys gaigeae gaigeae).

A total of 264 unique turtle shells were observed in the dataset, based on the unique turtle IDs. Dataset Overview: This dataset contain information about various turtle sightings, with each entry detailing the image file and associated metadata for each turtle sighting. The dataset includes the following fields: index: An identifier for each row or entry in the dataset (appears to be auto-generated). photoname: The filename of the photo taken of the turtle, including the date and description of the image (e.g., carapace photos). turtle_ID: A unique identifier for each turtle, possibly denoting a tag or observation number. year: The year when the photo was taken. month: The month when the photo was taken. day: The day when the photo was taken. Summary of Data: The dataset provides a chronological record of turtles identified through their respective photos. The filenames in the photoname column indicate the type of image (e.g., carapace), and the corresponding turtle ID and date are embedded within the filename. The dataset spans multiple years (e.g., 2019, 2020, 2023), providing longitudinal information about turtle sightings or tracking.

These data represent the results of trapping efforts for native northwestern pond turtles (Actinemys marmorata) and non-native red-eared sliders (Trachemys scripta elegans) in wetlands and irrigation canals in agricultural regions of the Sacramento Valley in 2018 and the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta in 2019. In addition to detection data for these two turtle species, the dataset includes habitat data from each trapped site and data on the capture rate of fish, frogs, and tadpoles at each site.

These data are from joint visual encounter and environmental DNA (eDNA) surveys conducted for northwestern pond turtles (Actinemys marmorata) in streams on privately-owned timberlands in northern California.
