Taxonomic remark From Gaffney et al., 2006: [This taxon, type material designated AMNH 6078] ... agrees closely in size, shape of the ischiac scar, and smooth external surface with YPM 3608 Chedighaii (formerly Bothremys) barberi. Unfortunately, these features are widespread in Pelomedusoides and inadequate to objectively identify AMNH 6078. This taxon is considered to be incertae sedis at the level of Pelomedusoides, as these features occur in both Bothremydidae and Podocnemididae. ... Broin (1988) synonymized Naiadochelys ingravata with Taphrosphys sulcatus, but Taphrosphys is unique among pleurodires in having a small, circular ischiac scar, quite different from the large triangular scar in Naiadochelys and in most other pleurodires. [details]
