Diagnosis
| Reference | Diagnosis | |
|---|---|---|
| F. de Lapparent de Broin and M. S. de la Fuente 2001 | Same for the genus and species. Relatively derived state in the Phrynops group by the anterior border of the carapace, rounded, clearly progressively elongated (although not as much as possible in chelids) from peripherals 3 up to nuchal; the nuchal narrowed, especially anteriorly (straight anterior border), long with regard to its width and to the carapace; the vertebrals narrowed from anterior part of vertebral 1, and more at vertebral 2; the dilated intergular; the moderately elongated and depressed cervical vertebra 4, with oval and close postzygapophyses facets on a not depressed common process. Apomorphic by its intergular very large, with lateroposterior border slightly concave, widening much anteriorly with rounded convex borders and then more anteriorly much narrowing, the gulars (not contacting entoplastron) much anteriorly widened. |
