Red-faced turtle
The red-faced turtle, (''Emydura victoriae'' Gray, 1842) is a medium-sized aquatic turtle inhabiting rivers, streams and permanent water bodies across much of northern Australia.
==Taxonomy==
This species has a disrupted nomenclatural history. For many years it appeared in the literature as ''Emydura australis'' (Gray 1841:445)〔Gray, John Edward. 1841. A catalogue of the species of reptiles and amphibia hitherto described as inhabiting Australia, with a description of some new species from Western Australia, and some remarks on their geographical distribution. In: Grey, G. Journals of Two Expeditions of Discovery in Northwest and Western Australia. London: T. and W. Boone, Vol. 2. Appendix E, pp. 422–449.〕 however in 1983 this name was synonymised with ''Emydura macquarii'', incorrectly according to Iverson et al. 2001.〔John B. Iverson, Arthur Georges and Scott Thomson. 2001. The validity of the taxonomic changes for turtles proposed by Wells and Wellington. ''Journal of Herpetology'' 35, 361-368. (download )〕 Since this time the species has been known as ''Emydura victoriae'' this name too has nomenclatural issues〔 and it is possible the names may eventually be reversed again.
