Distribution extension and first verified records for Narrow-bridged Musk Turtle, Claudius angustatus Cope, 1865 (Testudines, Kinosternidae) in the Selva Lacandona, Mexico
We document the first verifiable records of Claudius angustatus Cope, 1865 in the Selva Lacandona, Chiapas, Mexico. Three individuals were observed in different types of anthropic land covers. These records are the most recent observations of C. angustatus in the southeastern zone of its range in mo...
