BARRIENTOS-MUNOZ, Karla G. et al. Sea Turtles in the Bahía Málaga Conservation Mosaic, Colombian Pacific. Bol. Invest. Mar. Cost. [online]. 2022, vol.51, n.1, pp.117-136.  Epub 01-Ago-2022. ISSN 0122-9761.  https://doi.org/10.25268/bimc.invemar.2022.51.1.1096.

The species and sizes of sea turtles present in the Bahía Málaga Conservation Mosaic, Valle del Cauca, were characterized between 2016-2020 through aquatic monitoring and voluntary delivery by native fishermen. The registry of individuals was determined by aquatic monitoring, which was divided into three phases: exploratory sampling, continuous sampling, standardized sampling, plus voluntary deliveries by fishermen in their fishing tasks. A total of 107 hours of effort were used to detect 51 individuals of hawksbill (Eretmochelys imbricata) and black (Chelonia mydas) turtles. These results contribute as a baseline for the knowledge of sea turtles as an effective strategy for research and conservation in Bahía Málaga.

Palabras clave : Eretmochelys imbricata; Chelonia mydas; in-water monitoring; Pacific Ocean.
