| Resumo: |
A partir de análisis morfométricos se determinó la relación existente entre los escudos dorsales con el largo recto del caparazón (LRC) para 44 ejemplares de tortuga carey (Eretmochelys imbricata), provenientes de los dos sitios de capturas tradicionales en Cuba (Nuevitas y Cocodrilo) que operaron hasta el 2008. Se tomaron dos mediciones por escudos, ancho del escudo (AE) y largo del escudo hasta la línea de imbricación (LI) para los cuatro escudos del lado izquierdo (c1-c4) y los cinco vertebrales (v1-v5). Se encontró una relación estadísticamente significativa para todos los escudos medidos tanto en la relación (LRC-AE) como (LRC-LI), p < 0,05, resultando estas moderadamente fuertes. Las correlaciones positivas entre los escudos y los largos rectos de los ejemplares medidos, permiten estimar clases de tallas de los animales a partir de los escudos, además de conocer más sobre la biología de esta especie y facilitar un mejor reconocimiento de los productos de la captura ilegal e incidental.
The relation between dorsal scutes and straight length carapace (SLC) for 44 hawksbills (Eretmochelys imbricata) turtles from two Cuban harvest sites (Nuevitas and Cocodrilo) that were operational until 2008 was determined. Two measures by scute, Scute width (S. width) and scute length until imbrications line (LI) were obtained from the four left laterals scutes (L1-L4) and the five centrals plates (C1-C5). A significant statistical relation of all measured scutes in SCL-S. Wide and SCL-LI was found, with p < 0,05 and 95 % of confidence, being these moderately strong due to the obtained values of the correlation coefficient (r). The positive correlations found, between scutes and SCL of the measured animals, allows the estimation of size classes of the animals from scutes, as well as to know more about the biology of this species and to facility a better recognition of the product of furtive catch and bycatch.
