“…Crocodilians are dimorphic in their nesting habits (Greer, 1971), with some species building mound nests and others excavating hole nests (Greer, 1970(Greer, , 1971Webb et al, 1983;Ferguson, 1985). Both types of nests provide ideal temperature, humidity (Chabreck, 1973;Magnusson, 1979;Ferguson and Joanen 1983;Lutz and Dunbar-Cooper 1984;Ferguson, 1985) and appropriate levels of oxygen for gas exchange (Grigg et al, 2010). Once thought to be hole nesters (Barbour and Ramsden, 1919;Varona, 1966;Greer, 1970;Varona, 1986), C. rhombifer, are now known to utilize both hole and mound nests (Thorbjarnarson, 1996).…”
