Diagnosis
Reference | Diagnosis | |
---|---|---|
E. Vlachos 2018 | Pseudemys carri can be diagnosed as a member of Emydidae and Pseudemys by the full list of shell characters listed for those clades above. Pseudemys carri differs from extant Pseudemys and Pseudemys williamsi in the long visceral and the longer ventral overlap of the gular onto the entoplastron. Pseudemys carri further differs from Pseudemys concinna and is more similar to Pseudemys williamsi in the unnotched pygal and the smooth border of the posterior peripherals and from Pseudemys williamsi in the rugose dorsal carapace surface. |
