Variables for each <i>L</i>. <i>olivacea</i> nest density over two arrival seasons on La Escobilla Beach, Oaxaca, Mexico.

<p>Mean ± SD. Total is shown in parenthesis.</p><p>Data provided by the Centro Mexicano de la Tortuga–CONANP, Mexico for the sixth arribada 2008–2009 with an estimated 116,000 nests (~11.5 million turtle eggs). For the first arribada (2011–2012) about 4,476 nests (~447,000 eggs) were estimated.</p
