Hi- I think the "unknown turtle" on your start page is a Peninsula Cooter or Florida Cooter Pseudemys peninsularis or P. floridana (you would need to look at the spots along the edge of the plastron to differentiate). They are herbivores (but don't trust them with pet fish, crabs, etc.) that need to be kept warm. Best,

A: Not an exact match in the pics but close. I'll use your suggestion until I learn more. LA

Looks like a map turtle.

A: Good call. Still, there are a dozen or so map turtles in the U.S. I'll put your info on the Misc Turtles page. Thanks. LA

On your home page, the unidentified turtle is a yellow- belled slider. Similar to red ears except their plastrons are brighter yellow, and there is no red behind their eyes. They, unlike red ears, are actually native to Florida.

A: You nailed it. I'm adding your info to my Misc Turtles V page. Thanks. LA

Twist-neck turtles seem fearless (or maybe stupid). They trust humans -- male.

For more info go to Twist-Necked Turtles.

Side-neck turtle -- always cheerful.

Just polishing off a feeder goldfish.

Long tail denoting a male.

Looks to have a double keel similar to the twisted neck turtle -- not a real surprise.

Eager eater checking out a deceased swordtail.

Plastron.

Obvious male (long tail).
