Pliocene and Pleistocene Records of Fossil Turtles from Western Kansas and Oklahoma
EDWIN C. GALBREATH
In the vertebrate paleontological collection at the University of Kansas Museum of Natural History there are many fragments of turtles that have been collected, generally in connection with the excavation or recovery of other fossils. The generic identification of this material is possible in many instances, and such identifications give new and important geological and distributional records for genera in existence today.
All catalogue numbers refer to the vertebrate paleontological collection in the University of Kansas Museum of Natural History.
Family KINOSTERNIDAE
Family EMYDIDAE
Family TESTUDINIDAE
+Gopherus+ sp. No. 5935 is from the Pleistocene of Harper County, Kansas, and No. 7677 is from the early Pleistocene of Beaver County, Oklahoma. Each is composed of costals and neurals which may be referred to this genus. Their size indicates an animal considerably larger than any on record, and probably these specimens represent a new species.
Family CHELYDRIDAE
Family TRIONYCHIDAE
+Amyda+ sp. No. 6800 is part of a costal collected in Seward County, Kansas. It is possibly of early Pleistocene age. No. 7568 is part of a carapace from Meade County, Kansas, probably of the same age.
