Murray River turtle
The Murray River turtle (''Emydura macquarii'' ) is a wide-ranging species that occurs throughout many of the rivers of the eastern half of Australia. It is found primarily in the Murray River Basin and all its major tributaries, along with a number of coastal rivers up the New South Wales Coast. It is also found in the coastal Queensland Rivers and the Cooper Creek Ecosystem, along with Fraser Island.
==Collection history and discovery==
This species has a long and complicated nomenclatural history, including even its original description. The holotype was originally collected by René Primevère Lesson (1794–1849) and Prosper Garnot (1794–1838) in 1824. During an expedition on the ''La Coquille'', captained by Louis Isidore Duperrey, which visited Sydney, Australia, from 17 January - 25 March 1824, they visited Bathurst, and collected the holotype from the Macquarie River.〔Cann, J. 1998. Australian Freshwater Turtles. Beumont Publishing, Singapore. pp. 101〕
The first description of the species was offered by Baron Georges Cuvier in 1829,〔Cuvier, G. L. C. F. D. 1829. Le Regne Animal. Vol. 2 XV. Paris: Deterville, pp. 406 (ii)〕 but this description is nowadays seen as a ''nomen nudum''. Hence, the description by John Edward Gray in 1831〔 is considered the valid description.
