    Action: changed name from "Graptemys geographica" to "Graptemys pseudogeographica "

    Reviewer's comments:
         "The high carapace keel and the angled bar behind the eye indicates that this is a False Map Turtle, Graptemys pseudogeographica. It is definitely not G. geographica. Subspecies is probably G. p. pseudogeographica."
