West African mud turtle : ウィキペディア英語版 | West African mud turtle
The West African mud turtle (West African side-necked turtle, swamp terrapin) (''Pelusios castaneus'') is a species of turtle in the Pelomedusidae family. ''Pelusios castaneus'' is endemic to West and Middle Africa. ==Taxonomy== The so-called Seychelles black terrapin, Seychelles mud turtle, or Seychelles terrapin was considered a species of turtle (''Pelusios seychellensis'') in the Pelomedusidae family, endemic to Seychelles. Genetic analysis of the lectotype has shown, however, that this turtle was never a separate species, and is in fact ''Pelusios castaneus''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/04/130404072916.htm )〕 It is possible that specimens were confused in a private collection before being acquired by the Zoological Museum Hamburg in 1901, or else mislabeled there.
