Plastron with three inked markings, on the left humeral scute is the BMNH number “1947.3.5.89”, on the right humeral is the number “74a” Also on the bridge area of the right abdominal is the original number “40.12.9.81”; the latter part of the number is less clear. Dry mounted specimen, entire with the limbs extended. Neck broken, posterior part of neck skin collapsed inside shell.

marginal scute twice the length of first marginal, all other marginals normal. Plastron narrow and slightly trapezoidal, yellow-orange and highly reticulated. Legs all overstuffed; 4 claws on front and rear feet. Poor condition of neck makes determination of skin characters uncertain, however skin just behind the head finely reticulate with no tubercles observable. Head with artificial eyes inserted, and poorly preserved, though some osseous features visible externally.

Diagnostic comparison.
