摘要
Two pieces of fossil turtle from Tongshan, Anhui Province, probably of Late Pliocene, were sent to the present author for determination by the Anhui Provincial Museum. In view of the absence of bony bridge, the hexagona1 neural plates with short-sided behind, and the hinged hyoplastra and hypoplastra of plastron, the fossils were recognized as a member of Cuora, a living genus of Emydidae distributed in East and Southeast Asia, chiefly in China. So far as it is known, no Pliocene fossil record of this genus has been reported.
