Trachemys scripta elegans Trionyx Apalone spinifera Chelydra serpentina Emydura macquarii Emydoidea blandingii Chrysemys picta bellii This review reports on a decade of nutrition research into calcium (Ca) homeostasis in freshwater turtles, including research on non-nutritive factors that are essential for Ca homeostasis . Recommendations for future research include long-term research programmes in three specific areas: (1) photoreception, UV light and biosynthesis, (2) Ca homeostasis and vitamin and mineral supplementation, and (3) developmental indices, gut transit time (GTT) and energy requirements.
