Guess what kind of Reptile

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Another hint, it has a hinged plastron
 
It it actually described as a turtle rather than a tortoise.
Not a spiney hill turtle (it is a different genus)
 
asian spiny turtle?
Nope that is still a Heosemys genus, this one is not though the family group name does contain the word Asian.
 
not very confident, but melanochelys trijuga
 
this one seems much better,
kachuga trivittata, the burmese roofed turtle (common name varies)
I knew I recognized that carapace
 
changed my mind again when I remembered the plastron...
keeled box turtle (part of the asian river turtle family) (also known as the roofed turtles) (more specifically, this one is part of the asian box turtles grouping)
Geomydidae Pyxidea mouhotii
 
Third one was a charm, one of the asian box turtles it is the Pyxidae mouhotii (keeled box turtle)
Your turn to post one up VC!
