Abstract |
Little information is available on the movement behavior of any of the subspecies of "Sternotherus minor." Most published studies on the species focus on other aspects of its life history and phylogeny. This paper presents the findings of an investigation begun in May 2004 on movements, overwintering strategy, and diel activity of a population of "S. minor peltifer" in Whiteoak Creek, a tributary of Kentucky Lake (impounded Tennessee River) in Houston and Humphreys counties, Tennessee.
