In my biology program, we did not have a thesis for the Ph.D. We had a dissertation. I never completed this part of the Ph.D. program; hence, I never earned a Ph.D. My Master's thesis concerned prey size selection and the foraging ecology of the mangrove water snake, nerodia fasciata compressicauda. My study was published in the journal Copeia during the mid 1980's. I don't have an electronic copy of it. The library at the University of South Florida had it on its shelves at one time. I suppose you could get a copy through interlibrary loan, but I doubt the subject matter would interest you much. I had published another study in Herpetologica sometime around that same time whereby I described for the first time how these estaurine water snakes obtained fresh water. It is a less analytical article that might be more interesting to you, but I think even its subject matter is of little interest to most people on this forum. I don't have the formal references for these studies available right now.
